INTRODUCING THE REMSTAR ®M SERIES SLEEP SYSTEMSThe REMstar M Series sleep systems with C-Flex are part of a larger family of sleep systems sharing the samesmaller, easier-to-use, consumer-friendly platform. This will give you more choices when designing sleep apneatreatment plans that improve patient lives, while helping you to meet your clinical and business goals.REMSTAR PLUS WITH C-FLEXThe REMstar Plus M Series with C-Flexoffers optional integrated humidification,optional Encore ® Pro SmartCard ® capabilityfor basic compliance reporting, lightedcontrols, an easy-to-read display andthe revolutionary comfort of C-Flex.This device redefines the entry-levelCPAP market.REMSTAR PRO WITH C-FLEXThe REMstar Pro M Series with C-Flexcombines the amazing comfort of C-Flex,optional integrated humidification andour Encore Pro SmartCard capabilityto give you the power of enhancedcompliance reporting of apnea/hypopneaindex, elevated leak levels andsnoring. It’s the most versatile CPAPwe’ve ever offered.REMSTAR AUTO WITH C-FLEXThe REMstar Auto M Series with C-Flexis an ideal flow-based Smart CPAP foruse in the lab or home. Its ProactiveAlgorithm looks for and adjusts to thepatient’s need based on optimal andcritical pressure levels. When combinedwith Encore Pro software, you cantrack events like snoring, elevated leaklevels and apnea /hypopnea. Add thatto a host of other great patient features,and it’s easy to see why REMstar Autowith C-Flex is the smartest Smart CPAPwe’ve ever made.

THE REMSTAR M SERIES SLEEP SYSTEMS PUT OUR BEST THINKING IN ONE PLACE.DISCOVER THE C-FLEX DIFFERENCE.C-Flex is a comfort setting that enhances traditionalCPAP by reducing pressure at the beginning ofexhalation and returning to therapeutic pressure bythe end of exhalation. The amount of pressurerelief delivered will vary based on the patient’sexpiratory flow and the C-Flex setting. With threeC-Flex settings, patients have the ability to select agreater or lesser degree of pressure relief to maketherapy more closely match their needs.A PROVEN COMBINATION.Combining the breath-by-breath sensitivity of Digital Auto-Trak, thepressure relief of C-Flex and optional added humidification, theREMstar M Series sleep systems give you effective tools to helppatients build the long-term therapy compliance they need. In fact,in study after study, sleep therapy with C-Flex gives patients theirbest chance to feel comfortable with their therapy and their abilityto take control of their sleep apnea. And patients who use C-Flex use itlonger than patients on traditional CPAP – up to 1 hour 42 minuteslonger* every night.This is Digital Auto-Trak at work. With every breath, this patented algorithm reactsto the point where the patient transitions from inhalation to exhalation, and deliverspressure relief right when the patient needs it.As a patient begins exhalation, C-Flex reduces pressure deliveryand returns to the therapeutic pressure right at the point ofinhalation – giving patients the therapy they need and the comfortthey want.HOW IT WORKS.The real brains behind C-Flex is our patentedDigital Auto-Trak Sensitivity. Digital Auto-Trak is ahighly sensitive algorithm that tracks each breathand detects the onset of inspiration and expiration –even in the presence of mask leak. It then respondsby triggering C-Flex to provide an adaptive pressurerelief right when the patient needs it. And deliveringthe right level of pressure relief when patients needit makes therapy more natural – and more comfortable.AUTO-TITRATION ADDS TO THE POWER OF C-FLEX.To be completely sure that the REMstar M Series family of devicesis as impressive on the inside as it is on the outside, we’vecombined C-Flex, Digital Auto-Trak and our clinically proven**auto-titration algorithm to make the REMstar Auto M Series withC-Flex the most comfortable smart CPAP we’ve ever produced.The REMstar Auto M Series with C-Flex features our proactivealgorithm that measures instances of flow limitation and respondsby making subtle changes in pressure to prevent apnea andhypopnea events. Additionally, if a large leak condition is detected,this smart algorithm resolves the problem by varying pressurelevels until a proper seal is restored. What this means for thepatient is effective treatment at the lowest possible pressure withthe proven comfort of C-Flex pressure relief.* Mark S.

Patient management is an important part of anysleep therapy regimen to ensure patient adherenceand results. That’s why all sleep systems thatoffer the comfort of C-Flex can give youthe power of Encore Pro SmartCardtechnology to monitor and respondto your patients’ needs.The SmartCard records thedate, time and duration of eachsession. Additionally, both theREMstar Pro M Series and theREMstar Auto M Series allowthe SmartCard to record leak,apnea / hypopnea index and snoring.This will allow referring physiciansENCORE ® PRO SMARTCARD ® TECHNOLOGY.PATIENT MANAGEMENT MADE EASY.This simple mail-in card helps reduce home visits and eliminatesthe need for patients to transport their device to your facility.and providers to take a much more active role inunderstanding and responding to each patient’streatment needs.Encore Pro’s true database architectureallows you to handle patient files,develop patient reports and trackoverall patient compliance. Youcan even compare wellnesstrends of different patients toexplore ways to improve overallcare based on different criteriasuch as insurance provider orsleep lab – all with a simple cardthat patients can bring to you insteadof bringing in the entire sleep system.IMPROVEDHUMIDIFICATIONIMPROVES COMFORT.No matter how sophisticateda sleep system is, somepatients will not consistentlycomply with any therapythat causes dry mouth, nasalirritation or congestion. That’swhy the REMstar M Series sleepsystems offer the comfort of heatedor unheated humidification with thesesleek integrated units.To make humidification a more comfortablechoice, we’ve made the REMstar M Serieshumidifiers even easier to use. They feature anew easy-turn dial to get the right setting, andit doesn’t need to be reset during the nightif therapy is temporarily suspended. Plus, theredesigned “hidden” water chamber is easier to use,and easier to fill, and it delivers continuous humidificationthroughout the night.This easy-turn dial allowsmore precise humidificationadjustment, even in the dark.
