CPAP-BBAP

CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and BIPAP stands for Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure. Both devices provide a constant and continuous flow of pressurised air into the patient’s airways to prevent obstruction and collapse. The main difference between the two devices is that CPAP machines can only be set to a single pressure that remains constant throughout the night, while BIPAP machines can be set to two pressure settings for inhalation and exhalation.
