In the realm of sleep apnea therapy, the Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) device shines as a superior choice. With its unique ability to provide dual pressure levels, adapt to individual breathing patterns, and offer personalized therapy, BiPAP offers a more effective and comfortable solution for addressing sleep therapy.
Here are five signs that it is time to upgrade to a BiPAP.
1. You’re not compliant with CPAP therapy anymore.
ResMed, the leading brand in sleep apnea therapy, conducted a study on around 1,500 CPAP users who were failing to meet compliance. When they switched to Bilevel CPAP (BiPAP) therapy, there was a 57% increase in compliance within the first 90 days.
BiPAP provides two distinct pressure settings: one for inhalation and one for exhalation. The dynamic pressure adjustment makes BiPAPs particularly effective in managing airway obstructions. This allows for a more comfortable breathing experience during sleep and helps users stay more compliant to their sleep therapy.

2. You’re not getting as much sleep as you used to.
ResMed’s study also found that CPAP users who upgraded to a BiPAP got nearly one more hour of sleep per night. This can be attributed to BiPAP’s versatility.
While CPAPs have the EPR feature that reduces pressure upon exhale, it is restricted to only 3 preset levels. However, the exhalation pressure for BiPAPs is customizable to the user’s preference to ensure a seamless sleep with no interruptions.

3. Your CPAP is not comfortable to sleep with.
Have you felt that you can’t breathe with your CPAP? This is extremely counterintuitive since CPAP therapy is supposed to help you do the opposite. CPAP can even cause feelings of claustrophobia for some people.
BiPAP’s dual pressure levels can make it easier to inhale and exhale. In addition, Auto BiPAPs feature auto-titration, which means they adjust the pressure to your breathing as you sleep. In other words, there are specified pressure ranges for both inhaling and exhaling, further customizing your sleep experience.

4. You are experiencing mask leaks.
Some CPAP users require higher pressure to maintain open airways, but this causes inevitable mask leaks. BiPAP’s dual-level airway pressure system makes it more effective for high-pressure requirements and reducing air leakage.
BiPAPs also operate at a wider pressure range so they can more accurately administer the perfect pressure at all times. Their range is 3-25 cm H2O, while CPAPs only go up to 20 cm H2O.

5. Your CPAP is not addressing your specific needs.
CPAP primarily treats obstructive sleep apnea but may not effectively address central sleep apnea or other sleep disorders characterized by complex breathing patterns. BiPAP provides therapy that matches the user’s unique breathing needs, making it more effective. Moreover, BiPAP is better suited for individuals with underlying respiratory conditions.
If your CPAP is not giving you effective sleep therapy, it may be due to health concerns that require BiPAP technology. The ability to further personalize your settings on a BiPAP allows for an enhanced sleep experience.
