PR System One CPAP and BiPAP Machines

by Justin Graham, RRT on July 16, 2010

Respironics has recently released their next generation of CPAP and BiPAP devices and we’ve got you covered.


The PR System One machines from Respironics retain all the features you have grown to love with the REMstar series but with improvements.  They have changed the humidification system so that there is significantly less rain out while maintaining the desired humidity levels.  This makes the humidification system more efficient reducing the risk of getting water in the machine and, more importantly, fixes many problems patients have had in the past with rain-out.  many patients complain of water in the tubing making noises or splashing their faces, waking them up.  No more; this system trackes changes in the environment around the machine and adjusts it moisture output accordingly.  (See the graph below)

Respironics has also improved the responsiveness of the PR series machines.  These machines can measure the resistance of each Respironics mask and calculate that into the algorithm making the machine more responsive to you and the way you breath; increasing the effectiveness and accuracy of the delivered pressures.  See how it works with an OptiLife mask here
