CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. It delivers one constant pressure throughout the night to keep your airway open. It's the most commonly prescribed treatment for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).

APAP means Automatic Positive Airway Pressure. Unlike CPAP, it automatically adjusts the pressure depending on your breathing needs — breath by breath. It's ideal for people whose pressure needs vary during sleep.

BiPAP stands for Bi-Level Positive Airway Pressure. It provides two pressure levels: a higher pressure when inhaling (IPAP) and a lower pressure when exhaling (EPAP). It's often used for more complex sleep or respiratory conditions like central sleep apnoea or COPD.

Every person’s sleep therapy needs are different, and finding the right machine is key to effective treatment. While CPAP machines provide a steady pressure and are the standard starting point for most users, APAP machines adjust automatically to your breathing patterns for added comfort. For those with more complex conditions, BiPAP machines offer different pressures for inhaling and exhaling. Understanding these options—and choosing a device with comfort features—can make therapy more effective and easier to stick with over time.
