BiPAP therapy is an innovative medical technique, used to treat moderate to severe forms of sleep apnea syndrome. This method involves special equipment utilization to exclude respiratory failures during sleeping hours.
BiPAP installations create a constant pressure (with positive indications) in the breathing airways, due to which apnea treatment is provided. Among other things, this non-invasive technique helps combat snoring. The technique involves forced lungs ventilation, meaning a kind of “blowing” the breathing airways during sleep. Due to this, the main disease development mechanism is eliminated.
The machine consists of a small compressor, a mask, a tube, a set of filters. The compressor ensures a constant flow of air masses at a certain pressure. Air supply is carried out through a tube. This method painlessness is ensured by sealed nasal mask utilization.
The machines are very effective. They are especially beneficial to patients with severe form of obstructive sleep apnea. The disease is characterized by hundreds of breath arrests per night. These seizures provoke hundreds of micro brain stimulations during sleep. The device helps to get rid of snoring, and the patients’ condition significantly improves during daytime activity: patients do not feel daytime sleepiness, and their overall quality of life significantly increases.
Before you buy high-quality equipment which can help get rid of sleep apnea, it is worth considering:
Let us start with the price. It will be directly affected by the equipment class and the type of mask used. Manufacturers produce models of three classes:
We recommend paying attention to devices, which are characterized by the following set of functions and features:
The prices of some systems can be as low as 200 USD or less, while the newest, high-tier systems may cost as much as 2.000 USD.
The manufacturer plays a crucial role in making up the price. The more famous the brand the more expensive the machine, as the brand name itself says a lot about the quality and longevity. PHILIPS,RESPIRONICS,RESMED are considered to be the most well-known. Besides, one should understand that new and demo machines will cost more than refurbished or second hand bipap machine. What is the difference? New machines have never been used. They have the manufacturer’s warranty. Demo machines are, as a rule, exhibition models. They have not been used in clinical practice but they have been often presented at exhibitions. As a result, the price is lower. Refurbished machines are used machines that have undergone improvements (refurbishment can be done at the manufacturer’s facilities or in private repair shops)
To buy high-quality and reliable medical equipment, it is not necessary to resort to the primary market services. Used devices pay off much more quickly, and their functional properties are hardly inferior to the ones of their new counterparts.
BiMedis offers a wide range of devices, the price of which will surely surprise you. There are ads from sellers and buyers, located all over the world: cheap new and used equipment with papers and warranty is on sale on our international online resource.
