Abstract:
An apparatus for supplying a breathing gas at a pressure level that at least in some phases is above ambient pressure includes a blower device including an impeller and a housing device to receive the impeller. A suspension device is structured to support the blower device. The suspension device includes a variable suspension characteristic.
Abstract:
An apparatus for treatment of a patient with both sleep-disordered breathing and diabetes includes: a blower configured to provide a supply of air at positive pressure; a patient interface; headgear to hold the patient interface in position in communication with a patient's airways; at least one hypoglycemia sensor; an alarm; and a controller, wherein the controller is programmed to receive a signal from the at least one hypoglycemia detector, analyze the signal for indications of hypoglycemia and upon detection of an indication of hypoglycemia trigger the alarm.
Abstract:
A CPAP apparatus for supplying pressurized breathable gas to a patient includes a blower device including an electric motor, an impeller driven by the motor, and a housing to receive the motor and the impeller, a housing element that defines a blower receiving chamber to receive the blower device, and a suspension device to elastically support the blower device within the chamber of the housing element. The suspension device includes at least one elastic support chamber coupled to both the blower device and the housing element.
