SleepRes V-Com CPAP and BiPAP Comfort Accessory

Designed to make adjusting to CPAP and BiPAP therapy easier, the SleepRes V-Com™ reduces inspiratory pressure without affecting your therapy settings.

Simply add the V-Com between your CPAP mask and hose to enjoy quieter, more comfortable PAP therapy. Once you've adjusted to your machine's airflow pressure, you can remove the V-Com.

Key Features

Reduces inspiratory pressure & flow without lowering expiratory pressure (EPAP) or prescribed pressure*.
Durable, easy to clean
Reduces noise, air leaks and aerophagia (air swallowing)
Suitable for CPAP and bi-level therapy

*Lowering EPAP and/or prescribed pressure can lead to more breathing events, negatively affecting sleep therapy effectiveness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the V-Com help me adjust faster and easier to CPAP and BiPAP therapy?

V-Com softens high airflow intake to make therapy easier to adjust to. At the same time, it maintains expiratory pressure (EPAP) to prevent obstructive breathing events.

Does the V-Com affect oxygen therapy in CPAP and BiPAP circuits?

No, the V-Com does not affect oxygen therapy in CPAP or BiPAP circuits.

Can I use the V-Com with ASV (Adaptive Servo Ventilation) or AVAPS (Average Volume Assured Pressure Support) therapy?

The V-Com has not been tested with ASV and AVAPS machines.

Do I need a prescription to use the V-Com?

The V-Com does not require a prescription.

How long will I need to use the V-Com?

How long you use the V-Com comfort accessory is completely up to you. You can use it for as long as needed to make PAP therapy more comfortable.

How do I clean my V-Com device?

Please refer to the V-Com Patient Information Guide for cleaning instructions.

How often should I replace my V-Com comfort accessory?

The V-Com should be replaced every 3 months or if it becomes damaged or shows signs of decreased airflow.

This CPAP accessory helps reduce noise and improve comfort during therapy. Customers said it "revolutionised the air sound" and eliminated "Darth Vader breath sounds." It helps with chipmunk mouth, pressure tolerance, and breathing patterns, especially at high altitudes. However, some found it restricts airflow too much or didn't reduce noise as expected.

Excellent together with the Breas in-line Muffler

I bought this to use with my AirMini, in conjunction with the Breas in-line muffler. Together they have revolutionised the air sound from my cpap. No more loud Darth Vader breath sounds ! Perfect

Pleasantly surprised, so far working out.

Well I was a bit hesitant to purchase this but I heard that it helps with chipmunk mouth and sudden blasts of air so I figured why not. I’ve used it for five nights now and for now very happy with it. No more chipmunk mouth and I was even able to stop taping my mouth. I’ve tried it with two different pillows mask and want to try it also with another two that I like to use. So far pleased with this device.

Amazing device for high altitude places

It’s an amazing device, especially for high-altitude environments. Due to lower atmospheric pressure, central apnea events often increase; however, the V-Com helps mitigate this by softening the peak inspiratory flow, providing a more stable and controlled breathing pattern.

The missing ingredient on my PAP therapy journey.

After migrating to a ResMed from a Dreamstationd, and suffering through ResMeds broken 0 AHI scoring system.

I was initially put on CPAP with standard generic APAP pressure settings. After being retested by a different clinic I was put on a Bi-level device.
V-Com not only made the pressure levels I required tolerable it reduced the amount of water used by the humidifier. Due to the reduction in volume of air being blasted at me by the machine.My Hematocrit levels are now within the normal range.

Didn't help on my air mini

Didn't help on my air mini. Rather disappointing

It did not work for me

I bought this as part of a larger package to muffle or silence the travel CPAP but it restricts the flow too much for me.

What A Sweet Shopping Experience!

I did not know that I could purchase the products for my Mini-CPAP machine. They came in very handy for my overseas trip to London and Paris, and the added noise reduction and comfort was simply amazing! The pricing was amazing, and the time it took for me to receive my items far exceeded my expectations. I will definitely recommend Respshop to my friends, and I will do my future shopping for my CPAP supplies with Respshop also.

It is definitely a physical substitution of Resmed EPR

It help me to smooth my inhalation in the therapy. Lower my AHi.

Great product, at first I had trouble adjusting but now I can't sleep without it - really makes CPAP therapy easier but you do need to get used to it - it's not very noticeable at first but when you try it then go without it you can tell the difference in pressure. Worth it!

I was looking into CPAC Masks, Before my sleep study. I came across the Dreamweaver Anew CLOTH MASK. When I had the sleep study they used a few different Pillow types and a few regular Full Face ones. None sealed properly for other big plastic full face mask.

I've beed around others using a CPAC. I found noise of the CPAC hurt my ears. I have Autism and very noise sensitive. I told this the to doctor and was that is old ones. New ones are very quit. When telling the Seelp therapist about this I was told the same thing.

When I asked about Anew Cloth Mask. They kept on pushing the plastic ones in stock! I found the big plastic full face masks very uncomfortable. The newer CPAC where quieter. Still could hear the valve open and close. And the air hitting plastic. I could feel the mask lift my face, with mild air lose. The CPAC said good mask seal. Was getting 88 to 95 score from app on CPAC.

I got them to order a Dreamweaver Anew. It was much easier to put on. I found it took about a week to get it adjusted to seal and not be to tight/loss. The Anew is much quieter. The mask takes some pressure of the valve system so it makes less noise. I found for me it was not as frustrating in moving around, with mosty side sleeping. The app on CPAC Airsense 11 was giving me 84 to 88 for the sleep score. It is do to the CPAC isn't programed for the softer mask. It tinks it has a leak. I would hear mild air leaks on exhaling. Was still quieter for me than the Plastic type. I like it more because I don't feel this big plastic block pushing into my face

I have a Res Med Air mini and use an F20 mask. When I breathe in there is a sound emitted, non when I breathe out. I feel like I'm Darth Vader when I am using it. Do you think a V com or Q lite muffler can help minimize the noise? Thank you.

RespShop

Both will help. You will require the tubing adapter however as well as a universal tubing to use either.

Does this work with air pillows?

RespShop

Hi there,

Great question! Yes, the SleepRes V-Com is generally compatible with nasal pillow masks. It connects inline with your CPAP tubing, so it works with most mask types, including nasal pillows.

That said, since nasal pillows already deliver air more directly, some users may notice a slight change in pressure feel.

If you’d like help making sure it’s the right fit for your setup, feel free to call us at 866-936-3754, we’re happy to help!

I have the AirMini from ResMed. When I breathe out there is a significant noise. I am considering getting a Q-Lite or V-Com to help reduce the noise. Which do you think will work the best? Can I use the Q-Lite and V-Com together?

RespShop

I would suggest purchasing the Q-lite muffler kit which helps with reducing the noise. The V-com works better for customers who have a difficult time tolerating the air pressure, making it easy for inhale and exhale relief.

Hi,
I have the AirMini from ResMed. I use the AirFit N20. When I breathe in and out through the nose there is a noise during the duration of my inhalation or exhalation. Do you think, honestly, the V-Com will help me and reduce the noise ?
Thanks in advance.

RespShop

Yes, the V-Com does help decrease the sound of your respiration. Many customers are happy to have this option.

Where do I place my v-com in the circuit?

RespShop

The v-com will have to be as closet to the mask as possible!

Does it work when using just nose type only

RespShop

You can use this with any style full face or nasal style mask. The V-Com should be placed between the circuit tube (hose) and the interface (mask).
