PaceWave algorithm offers
COMFORT
PaceWave synchronises with the patient’s own respiratory patterns to deliver a high degree of therapy comfort1
SAFETY
PaceWave normalises patients’ breathing1,2. ASV therapy also stabilises the physiological variables associated with the breathing such as respiratory rate and oxygen level3,4,5,6
HARMONY
Synchrony between the device and the patient’s spontaneous breathing improves therapy acceptance1 and creates harmony.
