CPAP machine is used in sleep apnea therapy to make sleep more natural and comfortable by compressing the atmospheric air and passing the pressurized air stream into the mask via a CPAP tube or hose.
The machine will ultimately clear the blockage in the nasal pathway. The air pressure is slightly higher compared to the external atmosphere, just enough to keep your upper airway passages open and prevent apnea and snoring.
CPAP machines provide the continuous pressure of air, unlike Bipap machines.
CPAP machines are major of two types-
A standard CPAP machine can be operated manually by adjusting the pressure according to the doctor's prescription. Manual CPAP machines maintain a consistent pressure level throughout the night.
Auto-CPAP, or Automatic Positive Airway Pressure, is a machine that automatically adjusts the pressure needed for CPAP therapy. It uses an auto-adjusting pressure system that checks the patient’s breathing to determine the level of obstruction.
There are two types of Auto-CPAP machines: those with a standard algorithm and those with an advanced algorithm. The advanced algorithm machines have a flow sensor that checks whether the apnea event is due to obstructive or central sleep apnea.
They only increase the pressure when there is an obstructive event; otherwise, they just report it. Machines with the advanced algorithm are more comfortable than those with the standard algorithm.
APAP machines are more expensive than manual/standard CPAP due to their automatic functionality. Resmed and Oxymed are the leading brands in sleep therapy devices.
Philips along with BMC also contribute to the leading brand list. Here is the list of most recommended APAP machines -
| Auto CPAP Machine | Average Price | Algorithm |
| Oxymed SleepEasy Auto CPAP | ₹ 35,000 | Advanced |
| Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset | ₹ 64,000 | Advanced |
| Philips Respironics Dreamstation | ₹ 54,000-60,000 | Advanced |
| BMC ResmartGII Auto CPAP | ₹ 24,000-28,000 | Standard |
The best three the top rated CPAP machines are mentioned below-
Resmed is based in California and is one of the leading brands in medical devices. Airsense 10 Autoset has an attractive black body with a heated humidifier, Autoset algorithm and Easy breathe waveform technology along with auto ramp, climate control and whisper quiet functionality.

The Oxymed SleepEasy Auto CPAP is considered one of the best options for CPAP therapy.
Built with high-quality components, Oxymed SleepEasy comes with German turbine which is very durable and delivers the stable performance. The machine has essential features like Ramp Time, Pressure Relief, and Auto On/Off.
Additionally, the Oxymed SleepEasy uses the advanced FlowSens algorithm, which automatically adjusts pressure for best comfort. It even detects central sleep apnea, a feature usually found in higher-priced models.
With its advanced algorithm, the Oxymed SleepEasy offers even greater comfort by increasing pressure only during obstructive sleep apnea events, while simply reporting central events without adjusting pressure unnecessarily.
The machine comes with detachable heated humidifier with a preheat function that ensures the ideal temperature from the moment you start using it.
As an Indian brand, Oxymed provides home service, eliminating the need to visit service centers. The price for this machine is between ₹30,000 - ₹35,000.
Philips Respironics Dreamstation auto-CPAP machine comes with a sleek design body, having all the advanced features from cloud connectivity to advanced climate control and event detection.
It has simple menus, a front-facing display that can be managed while laying in bed or sitting up, and a detachable heated humidifier water chamber that is easy to clean.
Philips gives a quiet therapy with a Smart ramp, 2- step air filtration system, pressure relief and altitude compensation as its comfort settings.
Philips Respironics dreamstation is recalled by the company. We hope it will come back soon in the market.
There are three types of masks available on the market for sleep apnea therapy-
This type of mask is the most commonly used and covers the mouth and nose area. The full face mask is ideal for both nose and mouth breathers.
A nasal mask covers the nasal area and aids in providing air pressure directly to the nose, which is ideal for claustrophobics.
This type of mask is lightweight with a very minimal design covering the nostrils and the base of the nose only. This is the best choice for claustrophobics and for someone who wears glasses.
The CPAP machine price varies according to brand, any signature technology, comfort settings and also the type of humidifier and hose. The person can choose the machine with respect to their requirement.
The CPAP machine takes the atmospheric air and after compressing the pressurized air is transferred to the mask worn by the patient connected with the hose.
Oxymed SleepEasy Auto CPAP and Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset are considered to be among the top choices available in the market. These devices are renowned for their exceptional comfort features, which contribute to effective sleep therapy.
Yes. All Auto-CPAP machines have two modes i.e CPAP and APAP.
The things which should be kept in mind while buying a CPAP machine are as follows-
Resmed, Oxymed, Philips, and BMC are the best brands for CPAP therapy.
A CPAP machine lasts for up to 3-5 years and then you can replace your machine. Few insurance companies provide coverage for the machine as well.
Yes, you can but you must have a prescription from your doctor. Although you might have guessed your apnea correctly by observing the symptoms, it is a good idea to visit your doctor once so that the doctor can provide you with the ideal pressure settings.
The CPAP machine provides constant pressure throughout the night which is set by the person. While BiPAP has two pressure settings i.e. EPAP (Expiratory positive airway pressure) and IPAP (Inspiratory positive airway pressure).
9. Can I use any mask with a CPAP machine?
You can choose any mask ( full face, nasal, nasal pillow mask) according to your comfortability. However, Resmed, Philips, Fisher & Paykel have the best range of masks with the best design made specifically according to the needs of the user.
If it is happening to you, this is completely abnormal. You should consult this with your healthcare provider so that they can scrutinize the machine once.
