WITH C-FLEX - Direct Home Medical

WE’VE DISCOVERED THAT THERE ISN’T
ONE WAY TO IMPROVE THERAPY.
THERE ARE TWO.
REMSTAR ®
WITH C-FLEX
The ideal first-line treatment for sleep apnea.
• Makes therapy more comfortable by reducing therapeutic
pressure at the beginning of exhalation.
• Three patient-selected levels of comfort make it easy to
make therapy more personalized.
• Proven comfort: Recent studies have shown that patients
who use C-Flex are more satisfied with their treatment.
And they use C-Flex longer – up to 1-hour 42-minutes
longer* – every night.
BIPAP®
A higher level of comfort.
WITH BI-FLEX®
• An ideal choice for patients who do not tolerate or respond
to CPAP.
• Makes therapy more natural by softening airflow at inhalation
and exhalation.
• Three patient-selected levels of comfort make it easy to
make therapy more personalized.
• Proven results: Patients who cannot tolerate CPAP have better
success in remaining compliant with Bi-Flex (54%) therapy
than CPAP (32%) after use of conventional rescue protocols.**

Digital Auto-Trak Sensitivity
THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND C-FLEX AND BI-FLEX.
At the heart of both of these therapy technologies is our patented Digital Auto-Trak
Sensitivity Algorithm – our way of making therapy more natural by tracking, and
reacting to, a patient’s natural breathing pattern. Digital Auto-Trak can detect the
point of inhalation and exhalation in every breath, which allows C-Flex and Bi-Flex
to make each breath more comfortable by providing adaptive pressure relief.
A NEW HOME FOR OUR BEST THINKING.
Our REMstar with C-Flex devices are available in our new M Series platform – the smaller,
sleeker shape of sleep therapy. To see how the M Series can help improve sleep therapy
