DreamStation Go Launches Heated Humidifier, Upgrades Travel CPAP Therapy

WEST BERLIN, N.J., Feb. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The CPAP Shop, an authorized Philips dealer, announces the long-anticipated launch of the DreamStation Go travel CPAP machine with heated humidifier. At under 2 lbs and sized to fit in the palm of your hand, the DreamStation Go has long been a customer favorite to deliver sleep apnea therapy on the go. As the only heated humidifier with micro-flexible 12mm tubing on a compact travel CPAP device, the DreamStation Go takes comfort to unprecedented levels.

Go Everywhere, Sleep Anywhere
Humidification has been a difficult hurdle for travel CPAPs as the compactness of the machine limits the size of the water chamber. The DreamStation Go has overcome this limitation with advanced water-saving technology. It can deliver a full night of heated humidification by automatically adjusting moisture delivery to ambient conditions and therapy settings. Additionally, if the patient underfills or forgets to fill the humidifier, a heater plate shutdown safety feature prevents the machine from delivering dry, uncomfortable air to the patient.

In a move that distinguishes itself from all competitors and further improves upon the convenience factor, the DreamStation Go's heated humidifier is designed to use tap, bottled, or distilled water. Travelers no longer have to worry about the inconvenience of packing or purchasing distilled water after arriving at their destination.

"We are excited to announce the release of the much-anticipated heated humidifier for the DreamStation Go. The ultra-portable DreamStation Go heated humidifier is the market's thinnest heated humidifier and connects easily to the DreamStation Go travel CPAP. Users will be happy to know that the new heated humidifier works with their mask of choice and was designed to work with tap or bottled water, which means no more late-night searches for distilled water when traveling," said Tom Catalano, Director of Global Sleep Therapy Marketing, Philips.

Minimal Added Weight
Lugging around a humidifier along with a CPAP has been a nuisance for CPAP travelers for many years. To that end, the DreamStation Go's humidifier only adds an additional 0.76 lbs to the unit. The integration is quite simple as well; remove a side plate and click in to place. The water tank has a 240 ml capacity and is compatible with all tubing including the micro-flexible 12mm, 15mm, and 22mm standard tubing.

The new and improved DreamStation Go offers CPAP patients unparalleled freedom. The compact, state-or-art machine is easy to use with an intuitive color touchscreen, a space-saving built-in power supply, and an integrated USB port to easily charge mobile devices. For those who lack a power source, an optional overnight, rechargeable lithium-ion battery is a key feature. Importantly, the unit is compatible with all CPAP masks and is FAA-compliant for in-flight use.

DreamStation Go Plus Sleep Coaching-Satisfaction Improves, Consumers Win
Further adding to its customer service platform, The CPAP Shop has partnered with Philips Respironics to offer optional premier sleep coaching with the DreamStation Go. With this service, users will receive two phone calls from a sleep coach to assist with any technical questions that stem from initial use. Topics covered include machine setup, menu applications, functionality, humidification, heated tubing, CPAP mask issues, and the DreamMapper app.

"The sleep coaching we provide is a unique offering in the marketplace. We continually strive to provide a high level of service and believe that understanding the nuances of a new CPAP purchase and implementing best practices creates a solid foundation for improved results and a better quality of life. By connecting with experts who can provide tips and troubleshoot problems, we are starting CPAP users off on the path to long-term compliance and success," said Chris Vasta, President, The CPAP Shop.
