Fisher & Paykel SleepStyle ThermoSmart Breathing Tube
Standard breathing tube
The effectiveness of conventional humidification is limited by ambient temperature. As air travels from a conventional humidifier, it cools, causing condensation to form in the tube. As a result, it fails to deliver optimal humidity levels to the patients. This results in dryness and discomfort.
Heated Breathing Tube Humidification
ThermoSmart Technology, with its unique heated breathing tube, delivers higher, customized humidity levels that are maintained through the night, regardless of ambient temperature change. These higher humidity levels help maintain normal airway conditions to provide a more natural CPAP experience. All of this with virtually no condensation.
Those who will benefit the most from ThermoSmart include:
- Patients over 60
- Patients on medication
- Patients who prefer a cold room
- Patients with pre-existing nasal conditions
