Positive continuous pressure applied on the airway.

The system displays all PRP relative to the set
operative mode.
CPAP is a spontaneous positive pressure ventilation at continuous flow.
In this operative mode the patient is free to breath spontaneously inside the circuit but at a
pressure greater than the atmospheric one, with increased residual functional capacity.
During spontaneous breathing the pressure value varies around the set value, it tends to
drop when the patient inhales and to rise when the patient exhales.

time set in SETUP - Other), the system enables the APNOEA acoustic and
visual alarm.
The system will automatically provide an APCV ventilation with set safety
respiratory rate (RR bk) and I:E ratio (I:E bk).
