Löwenstein prisma SMART – Auto CPAP Machine
Automatic CPAP with intelligent pressure regulation
The prisma SMART from Löwenstein Medical is an Auto CPAP (APAP) device designed for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. It automatically adjusts therapy pressure throughout the night according to the patient’s needs.
Two pressure regulation options are available in APAP mode:
- Standard: conventional pressure adjustment
- Dynamic: more responsive adjustment depending on patient sensitivity
Differentiation of respiratory events
Thanks to Forced Oscillation Technology (FOT), the prisma SMART distinguishes between obstructive and central events and avoids unnecessary pressure increases during central events. It also detects Cheyne-Stokes respiration patterns.
Advanced breathing comfort
- softPAP: exhalation pressure relief at the beginning of expiration
- softSTART: gradual pressure increase to facilitate falling asleep
- Ultra-quiet operation (~26 dB at 10 cm H₂O)
Smart user interface
Operation is intuitive thanks to a uniform control concept, clearly structured menus and a large, easy-to-read LED display.
Modern connectivity
Multiple interfaces allow therapy data transfer:
- SD card
- LAN
- PSG
- External modem
Compatible with prismaTS, prisma APP and prisma CLOUD software solutions for flexible and secure therapy monitoring.
Humidification compatibility
The prisma SMART can be combined with the optional prismaAQUA heated humidifier to warm and humidify breathing air, reducing airway dryness.

Frequently asked questions
The prisma SMART is an auto-adjusting CPAP (APAP) that adapts pressure continuously from 4 to 20 cm H₂O based on your breathing. The prisma SOFT delivers a constant fixed pressure. The SMART suits patients whose optimal pressure varies by position or sleep phase. The SOFT fits if you are already stabilised on a known fixed pressure.
No. The pack contains the device, tubing, power supply, two pollen filters, SD card, travel bag, and user manual. The CPAP mask must be chosen separately. The heated prismaAQUA humidifier is optional and clips directly onto the device. It is recommended if you suffer from nasal or mouth dryness during therapy.
FOT (Forced Oscillation Technique) sends small pressure oscillations to analyse the nature of respiratory events. The prisma SMART distinguishes obstructive from central apnoeas. For a central event, it avoids unnecessary pressure increases. The device also detects Cheyne-Stokes breathing patterns, an important clinical signal to report to your physician.
The prisma SMART operates at around 26 dB(A) at 10 cm H₂O, among the quietest on the market. This level is comparable to a whisper and remains imperceptible for most bed partners. The device is designed for nightly bedside use without disturbing those nearby.
The prisma SMART records data on the included SD card and offers several channels: LAN, external modem, PSG. You can use the prisma APP mobile application to view your usage hours, AHI, and observance. The prismaTS and prisma CLOUD software allow your physician or provider to monitor therapy progression remotely.
The prisma SMART comes with a 2-year Löwenstein Medical manufacturer warranty on the device. Accessories (tubing, filters) follow their own terms based on normal wear. In case of failure, VivaRespire after-sales service handles the exchange or repair directly with Löwenstein. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase to activate the warranty.
Yes. The prisma SMART accepts 115-230 V power, compatible with most worldwide electrical networks using a plug adapter. It is accepted as a medical device in airline cabins. For very frequent travel, a dedicated travel CPAP like the ResMed AirMini is more compact. The prisma SMART weighs about 1.34 kg with its travel bag.
