ResMed S9 User Manual

S9 Elite™
POSITIVE A IRWAY PRESSURE
When an intelligent, feature rich fixed CPAP is needed, the S9 Elite is ResMed’s recommendation. Like other devices in the S9 series, it includes comfort and compliance enhancing features like enhanced Easy-Breathe technology… for whisper quiet mask and device therapy plus Easy-Breathe EPR for the ultimate in natural, comfortable breathing. To ensure greater insight into therapy, the S9 Elite provides via USB, or SD card high resolution oximetry, efficacy and compliance data.
Easy-Breathe Technology
Easy-Breathe technology delivers superior
patient–device synchrony, increased patient
comfort, improved device quality and,
ultimately, improved compliance. Sure,
this new technology reduces radiated
noise to 24dBA, which in itself sets the
benchmark for device noise, but there
is more to this technology…Conducted
noise which passes from the device to
the mask via the tubing is radically re­duced. What does this mean? A significant improvement in comfort levels reported with
respect to mask and tubing noise.

Easy-Breathe EPR
ResMed has enhanced the clinically proven Easy-Breathe EPR waveform to be even more comfortable. Throughout the night and breath by breath, the Easy-Breathe waveform reduces the work of breathing during exhalation creating a gentle pressure that adapts to the patient’s natural breathing cycle. With pressure delivery and patient breathing more closely synchro­nised, breathing has never felt more natural.
