Introduction
The ResMed HumidAire 2iC™ is designed to humidify the air delivered to the
airway during continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) automatic positive
airway pressure (APAP) and bilevel therapy.
Nasal congestion or dryness of the nose, mouth or throat may be experienced
during therapy. These symptoms are caused by dry climates, cold air
temperatures, the airflow delivered from the CPAP, APAP or bilevel system and
mouth leak. Moist air helps relieve symptoms of dryness and can make therapy
more comfortable.
The HumidAire 2iC is designed to form a single humidification unit when
attached to a CPAP, APAP, or bilevel unit.
