Page 7: Airmini Tubing And Activeair Technology
CPAP machine, enabling a smaller blower that requires less power. By eliminating excessive flow, ActiveAir enables the AirMini to be the world’s smallest CPAP device at time of its initial launch, while maintaining ResMed’s high standards for effective therapy. -
Page 8: Does The Activeair Increase Breathing Resistance When A Patient Exhales
The AirMini machine has auto ramp as the default ramp setting with the Start Pressure set to 5cmH2O. This mask pressure will remain at 5cmH2O until sleep onset is detected or the timeout limit (30 minutes) is reached before ramping up to therapy set pressure. -
Page 9: Air Is Expelling Out Of My Patients Tube. Is Their Tube Leaking
When the system is correctly assembled, airflow will be felt from the ActiveAir vents in either the Vent Module (N20 connector, P10 for AirMini) or from the F20 connector elbow as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2: N20 and P10 for AirMini (Left), F20 connector elbow (Right) If this is not the location of the leak, it is possible that the tubing is not assembled (or connected) correctly. -
Page 10: Can My Patient Use The Airmini Tube Or Humidx With Airsense 10 Device
1.12. Can my patient use the AirMini tube or HumidX with AirSense 10 device? No, the ActiveAir and HumidX technologies are not compatible with AirSense 10. As such, the AirMini tube uses proprietary connectors that only work with AirMini. The AirMini machine is designed to compensate for the air tubing and integrated ActiveAir and HumidX technologies, as such, they use unique connections to ensure they are used safely. -
Page 11: Humidification - Humidx & Humidx Plus
ResMed does not recommend using the HumidX beyond 30 days. Although, the HumidX has been tested beyond its design life, ResMed supports the safe use of 30 days. If the HumidX is used beyond 30 days this can cause deterioration in cleanliness, humidification performance and breathing comfort which can affect safe and efficacious use of AirMini. -
Page 12: How Does The Waterless Humidification Compare With Airsense 10 Humidification
2.10. Is there humidification for full-face masks? No. ResMed currently provides waterless humidification for N20 and P10 for AirMini only. Using the current HumidX technology we are unable to develop a HME for full faced masks that can deliver the desired level of humidification performance. -
Page 13: Flow Generator
3.5. My patient is worried that the AirMini machine will fall off the bedside table during the night. What can be done? AirMini is designed to grip onto the surface it is placed on. In addition, the AirMini mount system is available and has been designed to secure the device in various locations. -
Page 14: What Is The Operating Temperature Range For The Airmini Machine
3.10. If the AirMini is to be used in other countries, will the power supply unit automatically convert? Yes, the AirMini machine has been designed to accept an AC input range of 100-240V and a DC output of 24V. However, it is recommended that patients purchase the correct AirMini power supply unit for the country they are visiting to ensure correct performance of their AirMini machine. -
Page 15: Masks
The AirMini system uses ActiveAir and HumidX technologies to enable the AirMini to be the world’s smallest CPAP device, while maintaining ResMed’s high standards for effective therapy. This required a new range of masks to be designed to work specifically with AirMini and these innovative new technologies. -
Page 16: Airmini Vs Airsense 10
5.3. Is AirMini noisier than AirSense 10? While AirMini has been designed to be as quiet as possible, it is not as quiet as AirSense 10. This increase in noise was a neccessary compromise to significantly reduce the size of the AirMini machine. -
Page 17: Bluetooth
Refer to the smart device user guide for instructions on enabling Bluetooth®. 3. The first time you open the AirMini app, you will be asked to consent to the use of cookies and to accept ResMed's Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. -
Page 18: Is It Difficult To Connect The Airmini To A Smart Device
6.3. Is it difficult to connect the AirMini to a smart device? Connecting a smart device to the AirMini machine is similar to connecting other Bluetooth® devices. Pairing the AirMini device will require scanning of a QR code or typing the security key to pair for additional security. -
Page 19: How Can I Forget A Bluetooth® Connection Within A Smart Device
6.12. How many AirMini machines can pair to one smart device? The AirMini app can only connect to one machine at a time. To assist with multiple concurrent set ups, we have included a convenient Bluetooth® disconnect feature in the clinical menu of the app. -
Page 20: Qr Code - Is It Used After The Initial Setup
The QR code is used to establish trust and authenticate Bluetooth® pairing between the AirMini and the AirMini app. Once a Bluetooth® connection establishes between AirMini and a smart device, the QR code should not be required to reconnect to the same AirMini machine using the same smart device. -
Page 21: Data
If the “Erase Data” button has been selected, all the data will be cleared and won’t be recoverable. We have included a confirmation prompt in the AirMini app when “Erase Data” is selected. This will avoid accidental deletion of machine data. -
Page 22: When Does My Machine Send My Patient's Data
7.9. When does my machine send my patient's data? Your patient's data is usually transmitted to the AirMini app every minute as long as the app is paired with machine. 7.10. How does data get transferred from the AirMini machine to the app? Data is transferred automatically, provided the AirMini machine is connected via Bluetooth®... -
Page 23: Airmini App General Information
95th percentile pressure, therapy score and allows changes to settings. The previous 30 days of this data is available to view by the patient via the AirMini app. 8.2. The AirMini app says that the AirMini machine was not used the previous night when my patient did use it. - Page 24 The fewer breathing events he has each hour the more points he gets. These breathing events are also known as the apnoea-hypopnoea index (or AHI). AirMini measures how many times your patient's breathing partially or fully stops each hour. If he has minimal events, he gets 4 to 5 points.

Page 25: Will There Be Resscan Support For Airmini
8.10. Is the AirMini app compatible with tablet devices? AirMini app may function on an iPad® or iPod touch®. However, these devices will not be officially supported at the time of launch and therefore app operation and user experience may vary. - Page 26 8.17. How much memory will the AirMini app take? The AirMini app for both iOS and Android will require up to 100MB for installation. The exact storage consumption will be dependent on the number of nights of data stored. Refer to the relevant app store for further details.
- Page 27 9.2. Can my patient use AirMini machine when travelling on an aeroplane? If near a power source, your patient can use AirMini when travelling on an aeroplane. It needs to be set into airplane mode before (let your patient refer to travelling section of the AirMini user guide for instructions on entering and exiting airplane mode).
- Page 28 Yes, you/your patients can start and stop the machine from the Sleep screen 10.2. How do I enable SmartStart? SmartStart can be enabled via the Sleep screen in the AirMini app when Bluetooth connected to the AirMini machine. When SmartStart is enabled, therapy will start automatically when your patient breathes into his mask.

Page 30: My Patient Has A Cold. Should He Keep Using His Airmini Machine
Treatment 11.8. My patient has a cold. Should he keep using his AirMini machine? Having a cold can make using CPAP therapy difficult due to nasal congestion or blockage. In most cases, your aptient will be able to keep using his CPAP machine if he can clear his nose or if he already uses a mask that covers both his nose and mouth. -
