A continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine treats obstructive sleep apnea by pushing steady, pressurised air through a mask to keep airways open during sleep — the most effective non-surgical treatment available for OSA.
Recommended by sleep physicians worldwide, CPAP therapy dramatically improves quality of life, reduces cardiovascular risk, and restores restful, uninterrupted sleep.
Key Features:
- Fixed continuous pressure delivery — provides a steady stream of pressurised air at a consistent level throughout the night, keeping the upper airway open and preventing apnoeic episodes
- Pressure ramp function — initiates airflow at a lower pressure level and gradually increases to the prescribed setting, enhancing patient comfort during the adaptation period \
- Pressure range — typically 4–20 cm H₂O; auto-titrating (APAP) models commonly operate between 5 and 15 cm H₂O, adjusting in real time using pressure transducer sensors and computer algorithms
- Integrated heated humidifier — adds moisture to the pressurised air, preventing dry mouth, nasal congestion, and throat irritation for improved therapy comfort and adherence
- LCD/OLED display — clear readout of pressure settings, therapy hours, AHI (Apnoea-Hypopnoea Index), and usage data
- Data recording & compliance reporting — built-in SD card or wireless data transfer for therapy monitoring by clinicians
- Ultra-quiet motor — whisper-quiet operation (under 30dB) for minimal sleep
- Data recording & compliance reporting — built-in SD card or wireless data transfer for therapy monitoring by clinicians
- Ultra-quiet motor — whisper-quiet operation (under 30dB) for minimal sleep disturbance to the patient and their partner
- Universal power supply — AC 100V–240V, 50/60Hz; compatible with Kenya's power infrastructure.
Mask Options Included:
- Nasal pillow mask, nasal mask, or full-face mask — based on patient comfort and breathing habits
