CPAP/BiPAP/ASV Titration Studies
CPAP/BiPAP/ASV Titration Studies
A CPAP, BPAP, or ASV titration study is an overnight sleep test designed to determine the best pressure settings to treat your sleep-related breathing disorder such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or central sleep apnea (CSA). The study is a polysomnography but while wearing a mask connected to a machine that delivers airflow to keep your airway open.
- CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) delivers a steady stream of air to prevent airway collapse during sleep.
- BPAP (Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure) provides two levels of pressure - one for inhalation and a lower pressure for exhalation which can be more comfortable for some patients.
- ASV (Adaptive Servo-Ventilation) adjusts airflow in real time for patients with complex breathing disorders, such as central sleep apnea.
Throughout the night, a technician will monitor your breathing, sleep stages, and other vital signs to fine-tune the machine’s settings. This ensures your therapy is both effective and comfortable, helping you achieve better sleep and improved overall health.
Preparation and follow-up are similar to those for polysomnography.
