What is a Fixed Pressure Machine?

A Fixed Pressure machine is set at the recommended pressure level and will remain on this pressure throughout the night. Fixed pressure equipments typically starts at a low comfortable pressure and will then ramp up to the fixed pressure. The pressure must be prescribed by a Doctor based on his or her findings from a titration study.

Your Fixed Pressure Machine

Your pressure needs will likely change over time because factors such as changes in weight, age and other health conditions can affect the patient’s sleep apnea severity. When this occurs changes in the required CPAP therapy pressure are required. A Doctor may suggest that patients on fixed pressure machines have regular sleep tests to monitor the average pressure required and adjust their machines accordingly.
