CPAP/BiPAP Systems in Mauritius
Available CPAP/BiPAP Systems Models

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP) systems are advanced medical devices designed to treat a range of respiratory disorders characterized by airway obstruction or instability during sleep. These systems deliver pressurized air through a mask worn by the patient, maintaining an open airway and facilitating unobstructed breathing. CPAP devices deliver a constant, fixed level of air pressure throughout the respiratory cycle, while BiPAP systems offer two distinct pressure levels: a higher pressure during inhalation and a lower pressure during exhalation. This adaptability makes BiPAP particularly suitable for individuals who find CPAP uncomfortable or require more sophisticated pressure support.

The primary function of these systems is to prevent the collapse of the upper airway during sleep, which is a hallmark of conditions like Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). By delivering positive pressure, the device acts as a pneumatic splint, keeping the pharyngeal structures open and allowing for normal breathing patterns. This leads to improved sleep quality, reduced daytime sleepiness, and a significant decrease in the adverse health consequences associated with untreated sleep-disordered breathing.

In Mauritius, CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) and BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) systems are vital respiratory support solutions for a range of healthcare facilities and departments. These advanced devices are crucial for managing sleep-disordered breathing, hypoventilation syndromes, and other respiratory conditions affecting patients across various ages and severities. From primary care settings to specialized tertiary care centers, the need for reliable CPAP and BiPAP technology is consistently growing.

Ensuring your CPAP/BiPAP system is correctly installed is paramount for effective therapy and long-term comfort. Our streamlined process, tailored for clients in Mauritius, covers every step from initial preparation to final calibration, guaranteeing a seamless transition to your respiratory support.

Site Preparation: Setting The Stage For Success

Before our technician arrives, a few simple preparations can significantly enhance the installation experience. We recommend identifying a stable, flat surface near your bedside, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Ensure there is a readily accessible power outlet. For humidified therapy, proximity to a water source for refilling the humidifier chamber is also beneficial. Freeing up space around the intended location will allow for comfortable access during the installation and for daily use.

Delivery And Unboxing: Gentle Handling For Your Device

Your CPAP/BiPAP system will be delivered directly to your designated location in Mauritius by our trusted logistics partners. Our team ensures that all equipment is handled with the utmost care to prevent any damage during transit. Upon arrival, our certified technician will meticulously unbox your device, verifying that all components, including the machine, mask, tubing, power cord, and any accessories, are present and accounted for according to the manufacturer's specifications.

Installation Steps: A Professional Setup

Our skilled technicians will guide you through a comprehensive installation process, ensuring your comfort and understanding at each stage:

• Device Placement: The technician will position the CPAP/BiPAP machine on the prepared surface, ensuring it is stable and easily accessible.
• Connecting Accessories: The air tubing will be securely attached to the device and the humidifier chamber (if applicable). The mask will then be connected to the other end of the tubing, and a preliminary fitting will be conducted.
• Power Connection: The device will be plugged into a power outlet, and its basic functionality will be confirmed.
• Initial Setup: The technician will assist with the initial setup of the device, including setting the date and time and explaining the basic operation of the interface.
• Mask Fitting: A crucial step involves ensuring a proper and comfortable seal of the mask to minimize air leaks and maximize therapeutic effectiveness. Adjustments will be made as needed.
• Humidifier Setup (if applicable): For systems with humidification, the technician will explain how to fill the water chamber and the importance of using distilled water.

Calibration Requirements: Optimizing Your Therapy

Calibration is a critical phase to ensure your CPAP/BiPAP system delivers the precise pressure settings prescribed by your physician. Our technicians perform the following calibrations:

• Pressure Settings Verification: The prescribed therapeutic pressures (e.g., IPAP, EPAP, CPAP levels) will be accurately entered into the device's settings, referencing your prescription.
• Leak Detection and Correction: The technician will run a diagnostic to check for significant air leaks from the mask seal or tubing. Minor adjustments to mask fit or tubing connections will be made to resolve any detected leaks.
• Humidifier Level Adjustment (if applicable): The optimal humidity level will be discussed and set according to your comfort and doctor's recommendations.
• Ramp and Other Feature Settings: Any additional comfort features, such as the ramp function, will be explained and configured to your preference.

Following a successful installation and calibration, our technician will conduct a thorough demonstration of your system's operation, answer any questions you may have, and provide guidance on daily use, cleaning, and maintenance. Our commitment is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to utilize your CPAP/BiPAP therapy effectively in Mauritius.

The cost of CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) and BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) systems in Mauritius can vary significantly based on several factors, including the type of device, brand, features, and where you purchase it. Generally, you can expect a price range from approximately MUR 25,000 to MUR 70,000 or more for a new, high-quality CPAP or BiPAP machine. This price often includes the main unit, a humidifier (which is usually integrated or an optional add-on), and a basic mask. Advanced features, such as integrated heated tubing, data tracking capabilities, and quieter operation, can push the price towards the higher end of this spectrum. It's also important to consider the ongoing costs, such as replacement masks, tubing, filters, and potential servicing, which are not typically included in the initial purchase price.
