Natural performance - BiPAP A30 - because ease of use and therapy efficacy are key to patient well-being

Because our innovations are inspired by you and your patients, the bi-level ventilator BiPAP A30 has been designed to combine ease-of-use with technology advancements that adapt to your patient’s condition to deliver enhanced therapy. Based on a familiar platform, it delivers a smooth transition from hospital to home for your chronic insufficiency respiratory patients.

Because we know that being at home can work wonders.

BiPAP A30 through the patient care pathway

To help physicians smoothly transition their chronic insufficiency respiratory patients from hospital to home, the BiPAP A30 can work in interaction with other products and software. We offer a comprehensive solution through the different steps of the patient care pathway: from titration, to discharge, therapy and follow-up – as illustrated below:

Titration

• BiPAP A30 is compatible with our PSG systems (Alice PDx and Alice6) to provide detailed information on patient ventilation therapy
• The compatibility with our oximetry module allows the fine tuning of settings during ventilation set-up

Discharge

• AVAPS hybrid ventilation provides an innovative solution to help stabilize the patient and facilitate the transition from hospital to home
• The intuitive, user-friendly interface and low noise level helps integrate into the patient’s home environment supporting improved comfort and compliance

Therapy

• Clinically proven, built-in Auto-TRAK and leak estimation technologies enhance patient and ventilator synchrony
• AVAPS delivers the right pressure at the right time so patients’ needs are met whilst comfort is preserved
• System One Humidity Control and the unique ‘Dry Box’ design deliver heated humidification with reduced rainout and water ingress for Optimal patient adherence and comfort

Follow up

• Our full data management portfolio allows thorough patient follow-up at home and helps identify when any adjustments are necessary to maintain an efficient treatment:
• EncorePro and DirectView software – long and short-term trend reports on ventilation therapy data (up to 72 hr waveforms – DirectView only)
• Alice PSG systems – detailed information on patient ventilation combined with PSG signals
• Oximetry module connectivity to monitor SpO2 and pulse rate on device screen, and correlate desaturation events with other ventilation data when needed.
