AVAPS—advanced technology that simplifies patient care
It's the only way of ensuring the delivery of targeted tidal volume for noninvasive ventilation patients. Shorthand for "Average Volume Assured Pressure Support," AVAPS sets the standard in noninvasive ventilation. The exclusive AVAPS algorithm automatically adjusts pressure support to meet changing patient needs while maintaining a target tidal volume.*
Advanced leak–sensing technology with Digital Auto–Trak
Our clinically–proven Digital Auto–Trak Sensitivity algorithm enables clinicians to achieve optimum patient/ventilator synchrony.
Recognizes and compensates for leaks
Automatically adjusts its variable trigger and cycle thresholds
Improved humidification
System One Humidity Control analyzes ambient temperature, relative humidity and patient flow to deliver optimum humidity — and ultimate comfort — to the patient while also dramatically reducing rainout.
Easy access to patient data
Monitor patient compliance. Evaluate ventilation efficiency. Identify trends.
