Description VPAP™ IV ST POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE DEVICE Compact, high performance The latest in ResMed’s VPAP range, VPAP IV ST provides noninvasive bi-level pressure support therapy for respiratory insufficiency. Proven VPAP performance now in ResMed’s super-compact design The innovative motor provides superior flow performance and excellent response time to improve therapy and patient comfort Light, compact with comprehensive features • Almost half the size of traditional VPAP devices • Pressure range 2–25 cm H2O • Low noise makes it unobtrusive in the home environment • QuickView menu for improved over-the-phone patient management • Recurring reminders can be set to specific dates and recurrence periods to support patients and clinicians • Smart Data™ for patient therapy feedback Modes and treatment choices to suit a range of patients • Choice of four modes—Spontaneous-Timed (ST), Timed (T), Spontaneous (S) and CPAP • The ST mode provides a backup breath in the absence of spontaneous effort to initiate the breath Designed for effective therapy outcomes • Vsync™ technology automatically compensates for leak; the new algorithm enhances triggering and cycling • VPAP’s exclusive TiControl™ (inspiratory time control) enables the clinician to manage the respiratory condition case by case • A five-level trigger and cycle sensitivity enable customization at the beginning and end of each breath, improving synchronization between the device and the patient’s breathing Technical Specifications Mode CPAP, Spontaneous (S), Spontaneous/Timed (ST), Timed (T) Pressure range (measured at the mask) IPAP 4–25 cm H2O (hPa) ePAP 2–25 cm H2O (hPa) cPAP 4–20 cm H2O (hPa) Respiratory rate 5–30 BPM Ti control (S, ST mode) Ti max range 0.1–4.0 sec Ti min range 0.1–Ti Max sec Rise time range Min, 150–900 Trigger and cycle sensitivities 5 levels Maximum flow capacity at 20 cm H2o 170 L/min Data display on LCD Treatment Screen Mode and pressure, leak, respiratory rate, Vt, trigger and cycle indicators, Ti time, SpO2 and heart rate when ResLink and oximeter are connected.
