Adaptive Servo Ventilation (Adapt SV) Algorithm

The VPAP Adapt SV uses an algorithm to assure that each breath is properly ventilated. The algorithm monitors three key factors to ensure synchronization between CPAP pressure support and the patient's breathing.

1. The patients own recent average respiration rate
2. Changes in patient airflow
3. Backup respiratory rate

The Servo Ventilation algorithm continuously measures these factors and calculates a target ventilation. The target is 90% of the current average breath per minute. Once irregular breathing occurs, the machine rapidly increases pressure in response to hypo-ventilation, then pressure support decreases when normal breathing resumes. The algorithm helps generate a smooth pressure waveform, which is similar to normal breathing, ensuring that the rapid response to an apnea doesn't wake the user.
