Intended Use

The Nippy ST+ is intended for use by patients who require respiratory support via nasal mask or nasal pillows.
 

Modes Of Ventilation

• CPAP - (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) Constant positive pressure is applied via the mask. No respiratory support is given in this mode.
• Pressure Support IPAP - (Inspiratory positive airway pressure) and EPAP (Expiratory positive airway pressure) are set by the physician
   

For The Treatment Of

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
• Paralysis or fatigue of the diaphragm (Diaphragm paresis)
• Decreased drive to breathe (Central Hyporventilation)
• Some skeletal deformities (Scoliosis, Thoracoplasty)
• Patients with respiratory muscle weakness Eg. myopathies, old polio, motor neuron disease Nippy 3 is equally suited to Hospital or Domiciliary use.
