Sensing Error in Respironics Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Machine Risks Compromising Patient Compliance
We report a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine malfunction that may compromise patient compliance. A patient's Respironics DreamStation machine (Philips Respironics) was observed to sense “vibratory snore” events incorrectly, resulting in pressure increases that led to poor mask...
