Comfort functions
Ramp
The ramp function makes it easier to get used to the prescribed pressure while fall-
ing asleep. It allows the pressure to increase steadily over the adjustable ramp time
starting from a start pressure (ramp start pressure) up to the prescribed pressure.
The start pressure can be set by the physician between 4 hPa and the prescribed
pressure.
The ramp time can be set between 0 and 60 minutes in increments of 5 minutes.
This is set using the sensor button (see section “Sensor buttons”) or the “Comfort”
menu (see section “Setting a comfort parameter”). If the ramp time is zero, therapy
starts immediately with the prescribed therapy pressure.
breasyflex
breasyflex is a comfort function that facilitates easier breathing for the patient
when using the respiratory therapy device in CPAP and Auto CPAP mode.
breasyflex in is increase in pressure during inhalation proportional to the flow.
breasyflex ex is a decrease in pressure during exhalation proportional to the flow.
Note: Being the only function under clinical settings, breasyex can be passed to the
patient for setting if desired. To do this, the “breasyex patient” parameter must
be set to “ON” in the clinic section. In the “Comfort” menu under the patient
section, the breasyex settings are then no longer grayed out.
The breasyflex function levels can be set separately in 3 gain levels for in and for ex
or switched off. Pressure support is lowest at level 1 and highest at level 3.
