== Background and Identification ==

The Respironics Remstar LX and LX Plus are known as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines. CPAP machines are a common treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (when the muscles in the throat relax and obstruct the individual’s breathing). CPAP machines use a face mask and/or nosepiece to continually deliver a steady stream of pressurized air to the patient. This pressurized air essentially “pushes” the throat muscles back to their normal position, so they no longer block the patient’s airway.

***Note:*** The only difference between LX and Plus LX models is that the Plus LX has a time  meter.

== Technical Specifications ==

The units incorporate a key pad with two user buttons, a Light-Emitting Diode (LED) signal light, a time meter (REMstar Plus LX only), and a 2-digit LED display. The units may be operated using either AC (115 - 230 VAC) or DC (12 VDC) power.
