摘要:A method for controlling operation of a CPAP apparatus. The apparatus has ablower (2), a patient interface (6), an air delivery conduit (8) for delivering air from theblower (2) to the patient interface (6), a sensor (4p) for determining the pressure in thepatient interface (6), and a control mechanism (15) that causes air to be delivered at adesired pressure to the patient interface (6) and that detects transitions betweeninhalation and exhalation of a respiratory cycle of a patient in order to synchronise theblower output with the patient's efforts. In one form the CPAP apparatus providespressure in accordance with a bi-level waveform with at least one characterisingparameter of the waveform being automatically adjusted in accordance with indicationsof sleep disordered breathing. The indications of sleep disordered breathing can be oneor more of snoring, apnea, hypopnea, and flow limitation.
