Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare a modified AutoSet algorithm running on research hardware versus the traditional AutoSet algorithm running on an S7 AutoSet Spirit. The study will determine if the modified AutoSet algorithm reacts appropriately to obstructive apnoeas and hypopnoeas and provides suitable levels of positive airway pressure compared to the S7 AutoSet Spirit.

The hypothesis is that the modified AutoSet algorithm will be more efficacious than the traditional AutoSet algorithm

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Modified AutoSet Algorithm

The modified AutoSet algorithm responds to more patient "non-normal" flow types than the standard AutoSet algorithm
