The
C-Flex Difference |
C-Flex is a revolutionary new technology in Respironics
REMstar® family of CPAP devices that provides a more comfortable
treatment for sleep apnea. It's an ideal first-line treatment
to ensure better Acceptance, Comfort and Results.
The difference is the C-Flex waveform: a better way to deliver
sleep therapy that takes the work out of exhalation. To do
this, C-Flex tracks – and reacts to – every breath
throughout the night. This gives the device the ability to
make breath-by-breath adjustments to ensure the optimal level
of pressure relief during exhalation to deliver more comfortable
therapy. (See how it works.)
Patients who use C-Flex simply feel better, and with good
reason. A study published in the June 2005 issue of Chest
* showed that patients using a REMstar Pro with C-Flex used
their therapy an average of 1.7 hours longer per night than
patients on CPAP after three months, and the difference in
adherence widened over time.
To help you bring better results and more comfortable therapy
to more of your patients, we’ve developed a family of
REMstar devices with C-Flex so you can match each of your
patients to a device that fits their needs. The REMstar family
gives you a choice of therapy modes, reporting modes and humidification
options to deliver a truly tailored therapy solution to your
patients.
