Average Volume Assured Pressure Support
Features

Inspiratory pressure automatically changes from one breath to another to ensure the set tidal volume

  • To make titration process easier
  • To follow disease progression and patient’s needs changes
  • To improve patient’s ventilation efficacy and comfort
  • To increase safety by guaranteeing an averaged tidal volume

For which patients?

  • To improve sleep quality as Vt depends on sleep stages
  • Obese hypoventilation patients: To compensate for changes in body position; averaged tidal volume ensured
  • COPD patients: to achieve a combination of ventilation comfort and efficiency with no compromise. Get both benefits by applying “the right pressure at the right time”
  • Restrictive patients: To provide the comfort and leak compensation of a pressure mode, and the safety of a guaranteed volume

AVAPS is available in the BiPAP Synchrony in S, S/T, PC and T modes.
