Reviewers Tip:

The XT Prime comes with a grey, washable and reusable filter that should be cleaned regularly to make sure that it is performing at its peak. Depending on the amount of use the environment in which it’s housed you should at least be washing the filter every two weeks. If you are in an extreme environment where there is a lot of dust you should be washing your filter more regularly. It is also important to remember that you should replace the filter at minimum every six months so that your CPAP machine is performing at its best.

Helpful Hints

Palm Sized Travel CPAP

Created to be one of the smallest CPAP machines available on the market, the APEX XT Prime is one of the smallest, sleekest, and lightest fixed pressure CPAP machines available for purchase making it an excellent travel companion that still provides the excellent performance you have become accustomed to with other larger CPAP machines for your sleep apnea therapy. While smaller than standard fixed pressure CPAP machines, the APEX XT Prime has all unique functions that CPAP therapy users are looking for in order to receive the same benefits and performance that they are used to during CPAP therapy.

PVA

The Pressure Variation Algorithm provides relief to CPAP users who have experienced CPAP pressure during use by reducing the pressure during exhalation and returning to your set and prescribed pressure levels again on inhale. There are three (3 – C1, C2, C3) settings of different pressure levels which allows for the constant delivery of your settings. PVA will not compromise your comfort or have any negative effects on your CPAP therapy.

SD Card

All APEX XT CPAP machines come with an SD card that allows the user to easily download and store their CPAP information on a PC. CPAP patients can now record their data for their own review or take the information to their physician or health care provider so that they can analyze the read outs and make the necessary adjustments to better your sleep apnea therapy.

Size

Smaller than other CPAP machines in its class, the XT Prime is the perfect CPAP machine for frequent travelers who do not wish to lug around larger machines onto airplanes and in their luggage. Light weight and palm sized the XT Prime can fit into carry-on luggage and reduce the stress of having to travel with bulky machine.

Interface

The interface is user friendly, well lit, and easy to read allowing for quick changes to your settings if the need were to arise.

Power supply already built in

No external power supply brick as it is built into the machine meaning less stuff to carry making the XT perfect for traveling. Powering the machine requires the power cord to be plugged into the wall outlet.

Optional APEX Medical XT Fit Heated Humidifier

The XT Fit Humidifier which is sold seperately is designed to be the perfect CPAP companion. Used in conjunction with the Apex Cpap it can add a bit of bulk to the overall machine size however it packs the same punch that you would expect from larger CPAP machines. APEX has developed a great alternative for those who need a travel friendly but effective CPAP device.

Heated Humidifier

The heated humidifier reduces the irritation commonly associated with CPAP therapy. Traditional CPAP devices can cause irritation of the throat and nasal passages but humidified air can eliminate dryness.
The humidifier will provide up to 8 hours of humidification per night at a minimum. APEX has vigorously tested the humidifier and found you can reliably expect 8 hours minimum for a full water chamber.

PVA Pressure Variation Algorithm
Allowing the prescribed pressure at a time when the patient needs it the most

  • Reduce pressure during the transition from Inspiration to Expiration
  • Maintain lower pressure level (depending on the PVA setting) during Expiration phase
  • Return to therapeutic pressure in the end of Expiration phase
  • PVA and apnea detection
  • In order to ensure the effectiveness of CPAP therapy, PVA will be automatically suspended if apneas are detected. After apneas disappear, PVA will re-start

Stable and precise pressure output

The enhanced pressure stability avoids additional work of breathing and makes better patient synchrony
