V-Com™ CPAP Comfort Accessory by SleepRes
The V-Com is a revolutionary CPAP accessory by SleepRes designed to make breathing on a CPAP more comfortable without compromising therapy effectiveness. It reduces inspiratory pressure and flow, improving comfort for CPAP users to help encourage compliance. Setting up the V-Com in your CPAP circuit is as easy as inserting it between your CPAP hose and mask. The V-Com is compatible with all CPAP masks and tubing with 22mm diameter connectors.
Who Can Use the V-Com?
The V-Com is designed for all CPAP or BIPAP users whether they are new to therapy or veterans who are trying to adjust to a new prescription. Starting therapy with V-Com helps you adjust easier and sets you up for success.
There are no time constraints when using the V-Com. Feel free to use the V-Com for as long as you need to feel comfortable with therapy. When you're ready, simply remove the V-Com from the CPAP circuit and store it with your other CPAP supplies so it can be ready to use the next time your prescription changes. Since using the V-Com does not affect the efficacy of your therapy, you can always opt to leave it in the circuit.
