AutoSet mode

The treatment pressure required by the patient may vary due to changes in sleep state, body
position and airway resistance. In AutoSet mode, the device provides only that amount of pressure
required to maintain upper airway patency.
The device analyzes the state of the patient's upper airway on a breath-by-breath basis and delivers
pressure within the allowed range according to the degree of obstruction. The AutoSet algorithm
adjusts treatment pressure as a function of three parameters: inspiratory flow limitation, snore, and
apnea.

Normal airway

When the patient is breathing normally, the inspiratory flow measured by the device as a function of
time shows a typically rounded curve for each breath.
