Löwenstein Medical, German engineering for respiration
Löwenstein Medical is a German manufacturer of respiratory medical devices, on the market for almost 40 years. The company is specialized in ventilation, which it considers its core business — from diagnosis in hospital to home care.
Brand motto: "With people in mind". In practice, this translates into a strong focus on reliability, lifespan and ease of use — a very German approach to medical engineering.
The Löwenstein selection at VivaRespire
- Auto-adjusting CPAP: prisma SMART, the most versatile device in the range, with auto-adjusting algorithm and color display
- Fixed-pressure CPAP: prisma SOFT, robust and simple, ideal for stable pressure therapy
The prisma range: the Löwenstein standard
The prisma family includes the Löwenstein CPAP, BiLevel and ventilation devices. They all share a coherent usage logic: auto-start on breath detection, clear display, remote communication via prismaCONNECT, monitoring via prismaAPP and prismaCLOUD platform.
Common features:
- softPAP: pressure reduction on exhalation for more natural breathing
- autoSTART / autoSTOP: automatic start and stop on breathing
- Very low noise level: under 27 dBA on most models
- Connectivity: Bluetooth, app and cloud monitoring for your physician
Why choose Löwenstein
- German manufacturing: recognized production quality, strict QC
- Pure ventilation specialist: not a generalist that also makes CPAP, this is their core business
- Very quiet: Löwenstein CPAPs are among the quietest on the market
- Strong European integration: continental aftersales, native CE compliance, strong presence in German-speaking sleep centers
Your questions about Löwenstein Medical
It depends on your prescription. If your doctor prescribes auto mode (pressure adjusts to your breathing), go for the prisma SMART. If the prescription sets a single fixed pressure, the prisma SOFT is simpler and more affordable, and does the job perfectly.
Yes. Löwenstein Medical designs and manufactures its devices in Germany, with production sites in the Hamburg area. This is an important argument for European patients who value traceability and manufacturing quality.
The prisma SMART and prisma SOFT operate around 26-27 dBA at average pressure, placing them among the quietest CPAPs on the market. For reference, that's whisper-level, below most direct competitors.
Yes. The prisma SMART and prisma SOFT use a standard 22 mm connector. You can pair them with a ResMed AirFit, Philips DreamWear, Fisher & Paykel or Löwenstein (LENA, CARA, JOYCE, JULIA) mask without any special adapter.
Yes. Löwenstein offers prismaAPP (iOS and Android) for patient monitoring and prismaCLOUD for remote follow-up by your physician or provider. Bluetooth connectivity is integrated into the prisma SMART.
Manufacturer warranty is 2 years on Löwenstein CPAPs. As with any medical device, plan regular maintenance: filter changes every 1 to 6 months, consumables (tube, mask) every 6 to 12 months.
Yes. Löwenstein is widely used in sleep centers and hospitals across German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) as well as Belgium. The brand is also present in several Central and Eastern European countries.
