The Philips Respironics DreamStation Auto CPAP is praised for its easy-to-use design, comfortable feel and automated pressure adjustment technology. The machine itself may be the star of sleep therapy, but the correct accessories can make a big difference to comfort, hygiene and the overall success of your treatment.
Regular replacement of worn parts allows for consistent therapeutic performance.
Substitutes for Filters
Filters keep your machine clean by keeping dust, pollen and airborne particles out of the airflow.
Disposable ultra-fine filters need to be exchanged on a regular schedule and reusable foam filters should be cleaned often according to the manufacturers directions.
Clean filters will help prolong the life of your DreamStation Auto CPAP and ensure optimal airflow.
Heated Tubing for DreamStation
Heated tubing reduces condensation inside the tube, sometimes called "rainout."
It helps keep you comfortable in cooler conditions and provides regular humidification throughout the night.
Damaged tubing should be replaced as air leaks can compromise the effectiveness of therapy.
Humidifier Water Chamber
If you have an integrated humidifier on your Philips Respironics DreamStation Auto CPAP, it is important to maintain the water chamber clean.
Mineral deposits, stains and attrition can degrade performance over time.
Clean, effective humidification, the chamber is changed when needed.
CPAP Masks
Your mask matters more to therapy than any accessory.
Whether you employ:
- Nasal mask
- Nasal Pillows
- Full-face masks
You will keep a good seal with minimal air loss if you change your cushions/headgear often.
Choosing an appropriate mask that fits comfortably supports consistent therapeutic use.
Cleaning Supplies
Cleaning your equipment properly will increase its life and reduce bacteria and allergies.
Useful accessories include:
- CPAP cleaning cloths
- Cleaning fluids
- Hose cleaning brushs
- Replacement mask wipes
Daily cleaning helps to preserve hygiene and keeps your therapeutic equipment working at its best.
Travel Accessory
Many frequent travellers use the DreamStation.
Portable travel bags, additional power supplies and replacement tubing make it easy to keep up your therapy wherever you go.
And it’s useful for frequent tourists to have a second set of accessories.
