EZ START Titration
"The auto CPAP device gradually increases air pressure night-by-night until the preset therapeutic pressure is reached.~Pressure range: from 5 to 14 cmH2O. Ramp: 4cmH2O, 20 minutes. Mask: nasal (if no contraindication).~Titration pressure: fixed pressure that reduces rAHI below 10, mask leak below 10% of the session, time session above 4 hours."
APAP Titration
"The auto CPAP device continuously adjusts the pressure in real time to the minimum pressure needed to maintain upper airway patency at any moment. Pressure range: 5 to 14 cm H2O. Ramp: 4cmH2O, 20 minutes. Mask: nasal (if no contraindication).~Titration pressure: visual analysis pressure that reduces rAHI below 10 during 90% of the session, mask leak below 10% of the session, therapeutic session above 4 hours."
