DEVICE

Paced Breathing

The Paced Breathing (PB) feature(when activated) will work to relax the user and help them fall asleep by encouraging them to take deep slow breaths until they reach 10 breaths (or less) per minute. The feature will also detect when the subject has fallen asleep so the Continuous Positive Airway Pressur (CPAP) device will automatically switch from PB mode to regular CPAP mode.
