Heated Humidifier for CPAP machines
Going
to greater depths to improve patient results, an integrated and
easy-to-use heated humidification system has been developed for the
REMstar CPAP sleep apnoea therapy product range.
The
REMstar Heated Humidifier for CPAP is also a pass-over style humidifier. Heated pass-over style humidifiers are much more
efficient at providing humidification simply by increasing the water
temperature, which increases water vapor production vs. free
humidification. By increasing the water temperature, additional energy
is added to the individual molecules, allowing more of them to
transform from the liquid state. As a result, the heated humidifier has
the capability to provide additional water vapor to the CPAP unit's air
stream vs. a typical cool pass-over design.
Features
- Unique,
tubeless design that works with the new REMstar CPAP sleep apnea
therapy family. Its simple rubber coupler connection provides secure
contact between the water chamber and the CPAP.
- Clear, two-piece water chamber that's easy to fill and is dishwasher safe.
- A lighted humidifier control button on the CPAP sleep apnoea therapy unit makes adjusting humidification levels easy.
- Heater plate status light makes it easy to see when the CPAP humidifier is on or off.
- The Heated
Humidifier plugs directly into the REMstar sleep apnoea treatment unit -
so there is only one plug going from the CPAP to the wall outlet.

General Humidification Facts & Terms
Temperature:
The air temperature plays a key role when discussing
humidification. At any given temperature air can hold a specific amount
of water vapor. Basically the higher the temperature the more capacity
the air has to hold water vapor.
Relative Humidity:
Relative humidity is the ratio of actual water vapor in the air
compared to how much water vapor the air is capable of holding (its
capacity). Relative humidity's unit of measure is %.
Absolute Humidity:
Absolute humidity is a measurement of actual water vapor content
per volume of air, measured in milligrams of water vapor per liter of
air {mg H20/L).
Dew Point:
The temperature level where a fully saturated gas begins to
condense. (This is often referred to as rain out in a patient circuit.)
The REMstar CPAP range of sleep apnoea therapy products provides
obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) sufferers with a comfortable treatment
for sleep apnoea. CPAP treatment itself is believed to be the treatment
with the highest chance of entirely abolish snoring in everybody.
Did you know that sleep apnoea can be made worse by sinus problems? A study on sleep-breathing disorders (Redline et al 1998) found that those without sinus problems responded better to CPAP treatment.
Sinus irrigation is known to reduce the severity and frequency of sinusitis, helping to clear congestion and naturally help you breathe more easily. Just Buy Online are also the European distributor for an excellent sinus irrigation system called the Hydro Pulse, which is recommended by many specialists as an effective treatment for sinus problems.
