Fisher & Paykel CPAP

Set apart from the rest by their clinically proven, hi-tech humidifier products Fisher & Paykel Healthcare have been pushing CPAP technology ever since they got involved with obstructive sleep apnea treatment. With their SleepStyle CPAP range, Fisher & Paykel have a unique family of products with equipment suitable for any OSA sufferer.

Holding over 400 patents, Fisher & Paykel are passionate about research and innovation. The Auckland, New Zealand based multi-national started with general home appliances such as refrigirators and dishwashers, acquiring cookware companies along the way to satisfy their desire to lead in quality domestic technology.

In 1977, Fisher & Paykel's medical division was started, which later in 2001 developed into the current Fisher & Paykel Healthcare corporation.

Fisher & Paykel's vigor8 membership keeps CPAP users up to date with free information and videos on OSA and CPAP therapy. Such after care is essential for CPAP compliance and Fisher & Paykel have been the front runners in such patients assistance programs.

Their Sleep Style 600 series sets itself apart from the 200 series and any other CPAP machine on the market with heated breathing tube technology, avoiding the common problem of condensation or 'rain out'. It is innovation like this unique humidification delivery system which puts Fisher & Paykel amongst the top CPAP innovators globally.

Realizing how important humidification is for patient compliance, F & P also developed auto-adjusting humidifiers for their SleepStyle range of CPAP equipment. By monitoring room temperature, humidity delivery levels can be adjusted so condensation is limited and water and energy are used sparingly.

It is innovation like this which has consitently offered fantastic clinical results. And because of this recognised market status, Fisher & Paykel have assisted the N.I.C.E. with research and evidence of the performance of CPAP as a reliable technological solution to the rising problem of obstructive sleep apnea.
