The differences are in the way pressure is given and taken from the machine. Cpaps give continuous pressure to the patient, and that remains at the same level when the patient breathes out. Bipap provides different pressures between inhalation and exhalation. See Related Link.
What else can I help you with?
Can you use a cpap machine when you need a bipap?
No, because it uses pressure to aid breathing. If two people are connected to one source of pressure, it will either not be enough pressure (assuming both people are breathing in and out in unison) or if one person is breathing in whilst the other out, the pressure will be mis-placed.
What is difference between cpap and bipap?
CPAP (Continuous Positive Air Pressure) is static, the rate of infusion is determined by your physician and it stays the same. BiPAP (Bi-Level Positive Air Pressure) is when your physician determines a therapeutic range including a high and lower pressure and the machine determines how much pressures is required between those numbers based on the patients breathing.

What is Aflex technology for CPAP users?
Aflex is a form of Auto CPAP. Auto CPAP reduces the pressure in the mask when you exhale. A-flex (I think this may be a term used by Philips Respironics) allows the difference between inhale and exhale pressures to be varied.
What certifications should a CPAP/BiPAP manufacturer hold?
If a manufacturer can't show ISO 13485 + CE/FDA approvals, skip them. Anything uncertified is a direct safety risk for respiratory patients.
What is a BiPAP used to treat?
Bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) therapy is often used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is an umbrella term for lung and respiratory diseases that make breathing difficult. Initially, the therapy was only available as an in-patient treatment within hospitals. BiPAP machines are often prescribed to sleep apnea patients with high-pressure settings or low oxygen levels. BiPAPs are often used after CPAP has failed to adequately treat certain patients. BiPAPs can be helpful for patients with cardiopulmonary disorders such as congestive heart failure. BiPAP allow oxygen entry during expiratory phase during which pressure inside mask is low. Exhaling can be challenging for some patients who are using CPAP devices at higher pressures. But using a BiPAP machine, patients can breathe easier as the machine reduces the pressure level during exhalation, allowing the patient to exhale more easily and breathe more comfortably.

What is bipap?
BiPAP, or Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure, is a non-invasive ventilatory support device used primarily to treat conditions like sleep apnea and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It delivers two levels of pressure: a higher pressure during inhalation to assist breathing and a lower pressure during exhalation to ensure comfort. This helps improve airflow, reduce the work of breathing, and enhance oxygenation. BiPAP is often used when standard CPAP therapy is insufficient or not tolerated by the patient.
My neighbor said they were looking into respironics for better health, what is that?
Respironics is the name of a company that sells devices that aid in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea. These devices include CPAP and BiPAP machines, oxygen concentrators and monitors for infants with a risk of SIDS.

Who uses BiPAP?

How long should a non-rebreather mask be used on 8-10 leters?
As long as the patient needs it to improve oxygenation. The liter flow can be increased to 15L/min with a non-rebreather but if that's not sufficient the patient may need a cpap or bipap machine or even possible intubation.
