What’s the difference between the AutoSet and AutoSet for Her therapy modes?

ResMed AirSense 11 AutoSet will have both the AirSense 10 AutoSet and AirSense 10 AutoSet for Her therapy modes built into it.

The ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet algorithm has been designed for optimal comfort and treatment efficacy. It adjusts pressure only when needed to maintain the lowest possible efficacious pressure. It also includes AutoSet Response mode, which allows for gentler pressure increases for additional comfort.

By comparison, the ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet for Her algorithm is the only female-specific algorithm of its kind that accounts for differences in physiology and presentation of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in women for more targeted, tailored therapy. In a recent study, female Obstructive Sleep Apnoea patients using this therapy mode for 90 days spent significantly more time in REM sleep and showed significant improvements in quality of life.
