Background and Identification:
The Respironics BiPAP ST ST-D 30 is produced by Respironics, an American medical supply company. It was founded by Gerald McGinnis in 1976 based in Murrysville, Pennsylvania with the parent company Philips based in Eindhoven, Netherlands. The company specializes in respiratory-assisted devices for commercial use.
The Respironics BiPAP ST ST-D 30 is intended to assist a patient by supplying pressurized air to their respiratory system. It senses the patient’s breathing effort by monitoring airflow in the patient circuit and adjusts its output to assist in inhalation or exhalation. The device also analyzes flow patterns throughout each breath and makes internal adjustments for any air leaks in the system.
It is important to identify between different version models of the Respironics BiPAP ST ST-D 30. The versions “2.XX“ and “3.XX“ have components that are not compatible with each other. You can differentiate between the different models by looking at the serial number label located at the bottom of the device.
