RESmart®CPAP and Auto-CPAP User Manual
IMPORTANT!
Read and understand the entire User Manual before operating this
system.
If you have any questions concerning the use of this system,
contact your
home care provider or health care professional.
CAUTION!
Federal law restricts this device to the sale by or on the order of a
physician.
Indications for Use
The RESmart®CPAP and Auto-CPAP systems are intended to deliver
positive pressure for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. The
optional integrated humidifier is indicated for the humidification
and
warming of air from the flow generator device. These devices
are
intended for single patient use by prescription in the home or
hospital/
institutional environment on adult patients.
Contraindications
TheRESmart
®
CPAPandAuto-CPAP device areNOTintendedforlife
support. Studies haveshown that the following pre-existing
conditions may contraindicate the use of positive airway pressure
therapy for some patients:
•
Bullous Lung Disease
•
Bypassed Upper Airway
•
Pneumothorax
•
Pathologically Low Blood Pressure
•
Pneumocephalus has been reported in a patient using nasal
Continuous
Positive Airway Pressure.
Caution should beused when prescribing CPAP for susceptible
patients
such as those with: cerebral spinal fluid leaks,
abnormalities of the
cribriform plate, prior history of head trauma,
and/or pneumocephalus.
(Chest 1989: 96:1425-1426)
•
The use of positive airway pressure therapy may be temporarily
contraindicated if you exhibit signs of a sinus or middle ear infection.
Contact your health care professional if you have any questions
concerning your therapy.

Warning!
Indicates the possibility for Injury to the user or the operator
•
The instructions in this manual are not intended to supersede
established medical protocols.
•
This device is intended for adult use only
•
This device is not intended for life support
•
CPAP devices have the potential to allow rebreathing of exhaled air.
•
Contact your health care professional if symptoms of sleep apnea
recur.
•
Using the RESmart
®
CPAP and Auto-CPAP at an incorrect elevation
setting could result in airflow pressures higher than the prescribed
setting. Always verify the elevation setting when traveling or relocating.
To reduce this potential, observe the following:
•
Use BMC circuit accessories.
•
Do not wear the mask and headgear for more than a few minutes
while the device is not operating.
•
Do not block or try to seal the vent holes in the exhalation port.
•
As with most CPAP devices: At low CPAP pressures, some exhaled gas
(C0
2
) may remain in the mask and be rebreathed.
•
If the room temperature is warmer than 95
℉
(35
℃
), the airflow
produced by the RESmart
®
device may exceed 106
℉
(41
℃
). The room
temperature must be kept below 95
℉
(35
℃
) while the patient uses the
device.
•
This equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable
anesthetic mixture in combination with oxygen or air, or in the presence
of nitrous oxide.
•
If you notice any unexplained changes in the performance of the
RESmart
®
CPAP and Auto-CPAP. If it is making unusual or harsh sounds,
if it has been dropped or mishandled, if the enclosure is broken, or if
water has entered the enclosure, disconnect the power cord and
discontinue use. Contact your home care provider.
•
To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the power cord before cleaning.
DO NOT immerse the device in any fluids.
•
To remove AC power, disconnect the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
•
The use of accessories other than those specified or recommended by
the manufacturer may adversely impact performance of the device.
•
Inspect the power cord often for any signs of damage. Replace a
damaged cord immediately.
•
DO NOT use the RESmart
®
CPAP and Auto-CPAP if the display is erratic.
Contact your home care provider for further instructions.

0 to 5. Default setting is 3.
(2) Setting the Altitude
For Auto-CPAP: The altitude setting can be changed between level 0
to 2. Default setting is 0.
0 = less than 2,460 ft. (<750 m)
1 = 2,460 to 4,921 ft. (750 m to 1500 m)
2 = 4,924 to 8,202* ft. (1501 m to 2500 m)

(7) Setting the Reslex
The Reslex setting displays the Reslex level set by your home care
provider. This setting allows you to adjust the level of air pressure relief
that you feel when you exhale during therapy. Your home care
provider will have already set a Reslex level. If this is not comfortable
for you, you can increase or decrease the setting. The setting of “1”
provides a small amount of pressure relief. Use the + and –keys to
increase or decrease the pressure relief provided on exhalation.
Default setting is 0 (disable).
(8) RampTime
This setting is the ramp time from starting pressure to prescription
pressure. The device gives airflow at the relative lower pressure of
Ramp P from start point of ramp time, and increases the output
pressure to the prescription pressure gradually during ramp. Setting
range is 0-60mins with the adjustment step of 5mins. Default setting is
10mins. The device reduces the output pressure and counts down to
zero every time the Ramp key is pressed.
(9) Setting the Delay
When the optional Integrated Heated Humidifier is used, this setting
allows the air flow to continue for about 15 minutes at very low
pressure (about 2 cmH2O) after RESmart®CPAP and Auto-CPAP is
turned off. This will blow off the residual vapor and protect the
RESmart®CPAP and Auto-CPAP.
Default setting is Off.
