ProactiveRegulationof theAlgorithm The best way to distinguish different types of apnea:
• The automatic regulation of APAP / (E)EPAP requires reliable apnea information. In cases of obstructive apnea, therapy pressure is raised in order to prevent further obstructions. • In fixed modes such as CPAP, S, ST, apnea information is important in determining whether the therapy is going smoothly or if setting or even the mode have to be changed • Two measuring processes are available: FOT: Forced Oscillation Technique (in all modes WITHOUT backup frequency) FBT: Forced Breath Technology (in all modes WITH backup frequency)
