BiPAP AVAPS (Average VolumeAssured Pressure Support)

AVAPS, or Average Volume-Assured Pressure Support, is a feature of BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) machines that helps ensure consistent breathing for patients requiring respiratory support. It automatically adjusts the pressure levels throughout the night to deliver a set target volume of air with each breath, accommodating changes in the patient’s needs or sleep stages. This adaptation improves comfort and effectiveness, helping maintain steady oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. Essentially, AVAPS provides personalized, adaptable ventilation by combining the benefits of pressure support with automatic adjustments to optimize breathing.
