APAP machines have gained popularity as the go-to first option for sleep apnea therapy. APAP (AutoPAP) machines administer continuous positive airway pressure, much like a standard CPAP machine, but with the critical difference of automatically adjusting pressure rates based on the immediate needs of the individual patient. Modern APAP machines analyze the patient's breathing patterns in real time and utilize algorithms to modify pressure settings as needed. The result for sleep apnea patients is a better night of sleep as the APAP machine can immediately intervene to correct and prevent apneas from occurring. In fact, the current crop of AutoPAP machines is so effective they can be utilized in-home sleep studies, often allowing patients to go through the process of a sleep apnea diagnosis from the comfort of their own home rather than a repeated overnight stay at a sleep center. If you are a new patient or an old veteran of CPAP therapy, chances are the latest AutoPAP machines can improve your sleep experience.

APAP stands for automatic positive airway pressure. Unlike a standard CPAP machine, APAP machines are designed to automatically adjust the air pressure they deliver based on the user's needs. Learn more about whether an APAP can fit your needs.
The CPAP Shop does not work directly with any insurance companies. This allows us to provide cost-effective solutions directly to our customers.

Standard CPAP is commonly referred to as fixed pressure CPAP. This means that the machine is only set to one air pressure throughout the night. This pressure is determined to be the minimum amount of pressure needed to keep an individual's airway open throughout the night. Auto CPAP delivers air by automatically adjusting the pressure, based on the individual's needs. The machine's sensors detect changes in breathing and provide the user with more or less pressure accordingly. This ensures that no matter what (weight loss, weight gain, changes in sleep position, etc.), the individual is always getting the minimum amount of pressure needed, resulting in fewer apnea events.
APAP machines provide a constant flow of air pressure between a minimum set point and a maximum set point. The air pressure automatically adjusts to the user's needs by using breathing sensors to determine if more or less air pressure is needed. Read more on how an APAP works.

Auto CPAP, also called APAP or auto-adjusting positive airway pressure, is a type of sleep apnea machine that automatically adjusts air pressure within the range prescribed by your healthcare provider. Rather than delivering one fixed pressure all night, an APAP machine responds to changes in your breathing to provide the pressure you need at a given time.

An auto CPAP machine draws in room air, filters it, and delivers gently pressurized air through tubing and a CPAP mask. Its sensors monitor your breathing patterns throughout the night and adjust pressure within your prescribed minimum and maximum settings.
When the machine detects signs that more pressure may be needed, such as airflow restriction, snoring, or breathing changes, it can increase pressure. When less pressure is needed, it can reduce pressure again. Your provider determines the appropriate pressure range for your therapy.
For a complete setup, shop CPAP masks compatible with standard home CPAP tubing.
A standard CPAP machine delivers one fixed pressure setting throughout the night. An auto CPAP machine delivers pressure within a prescribed range and adjusts automatically as your breathing needs change.
For some people, this can mean a lower average pressure and a more comfortable therapy experience. Your sleep physician can help determine whether fixed-pressure CPAP or auto-adjusting CPAP is appropriate for your needs.
Auto CPAP machines are a popular option for people with obstructive sleep apnea because they can adapt to changing pressure needs throughout the night. However, the right therapy type depends on your diagnosis, prescription, comfort needs, and provider recommendations.
If you are new to therapy or considering a switch from fixed-pressure CPAP, speak with your healthcare provider about whether APAP therapy is appropriate for you. You can also explore our Beginner's Guide to CPAP Therapy.
