For use in the home or hospital/institutional environment. ## Device Story Microprocessor-controlled blower-based positive airway pressure system; includes integrated heated humidifier. Operates by delivering continuous positive airway pressure to patient via patient circuit (tubing, exhalation device, mask). Features 'flex therapy' to ease transition from inspiration to exhalation for patient comfort. Used in home or hospital/institutional settings; operated by patient or clinician. Output is therapeutic positive pressure; assists in maintaining airway patency for OSA patients. Device design is smaller and lighter than predicates. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. ## Technological Characteristics Microprocessor-controlled blower; integrated heated humidifier; positive pressure delivery. Connectivity via patient circuit (22mm tubing). Software-controlled therapy features (flex therapy). Complies with FDA guidance for software in medical devices (May 2005). ## Regulatory Identification A noncontinuous ventilator (intermittent positive pressure breathing-IPPB) is a device intended to deliver intermittently an aerosol to a patient's lungs or to assist a patient's breathing. ## Predicate Devices - Respironics REMstar Plus CPAP System ([K010263](/device/K010263.md)) - Respironics REMstar Pro with C-Flex CPAP System ([K021861](/device/K021861.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

For use in the home or hospital/institutional environment. ## Device Description The Respironics SleepEasy CPAP System is a smaller and lighter microprocessor controlled blower based positive pressure system with integrated heated humidifier. The SleepEasy CPAP System also includes the flex therapy feature cleared in K021861 which provides the patient with additional comfort by easing the transition from the end of inspiration to the beginning of exhalation. Like its device predicates, the SleepEasy CPAP System is intended for use with a patient circuit that is used to connect the device to the patient interface device (mask). A typical patient circuit consists of a six-foot disposable or reusable smooth lumen 22mm tubing, an exhalation device, and a patient interface device. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
