Respironics Inc. Aria LX CPAP System Analysis Report

Device Identification, Brand and Model

The device shown in the visuals is a medical respiratory support unit. Upon examining the inscriptions and logos on the device’s front panel, it is evident that the product’s manufacturer is Respironics Inc., and the model name is clearly Aria LX. The panel also features the inscription “CPAP System,” confirming that this device is a CPAP machine used in the treatment of sleep apnea.

Authenticity Assessment

The model name prints on the product’s front face, Respironics’ unique logo design, button structure, and screen layout indicate that the device is an original product. The authorized service and vendor labels (SKYMED Medikal, SESAN) on it support that the device has been handled by professional medical suppliers in the Turkish market and is original.

Areas of Use

This device is a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) system. It is generally used in the treatment of patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) to keep the airway open during sleep. It is a medical device designed for home care services and clinical environments.

Quantity Information

The visuals show a total of 1 main device and its accessories (carrying bag, hose assembly, mask straps).

General Condition and Cosmetic Examination

The device is in used condition (second-hand). Upon examining the front panel and casing structure, the following details are notable:

• Physical Deformations: No deep cracks or breaks are visible on the main body of the device. There may be superficial marks on the black plastic casing due to use, but its integrity is preserved.
• Cleanliness: Slight dust accumulation is present on the device’s surface. Especially on the exterior of the carrying bag (3rd visual), intense white stains and dirt are observed; this suggests the bag may have been stored for a long time or become dirty.

Accessories and Package Contents

The following accessories are shown with the device:

• Carrying Bag: Original-looking, grey-colored, protective bag with a shoulder strap. Distinct stains are present on the exterior surface of the bag.
• Breathing Hose: A grey-colored spiral (bellows) structured CPAP hose is located inside the bag.
• Headband/Straps: Purple/burgundy colored, fabric-textured mask fastening straps are loosely arranged inside the bag.
• Power and Connection: Black-colored cable or tube parts are visible inside the bag, but a clear image of the adapter is not available.

Label and Service Information

There are three different labels on the device providing important information about its history:

• German Service Label (Round): A German service/calibration label marked “anamed GmbH” with a counter showing maintenance dates (with numbers like 01, 02, 98 visible) is present. This label may indicate that the device has undergone a technical service process in Germany in the past or was imported from there.
• SKYMED Medikal Label: A blue-white square label containing the phrase “SGK Contracted Technical Service” along with contact information for Antalya location.
• SESAN Label: Another contact label with the slogan “Reliable address for medical products” is present.

Mechanical and Electronic Components

• Screen: A liquid crystal (LCD) information screen is located on the front face of the device. While the screen appears physically intact, pixel errors or operational status cannot be determined from the visual as the device is off.
• Control Panel: There are two round white buttons, one button with an equilateral quadrilateral symbol, and one button with a ramp (triangle) function. No depression or missing parts are observed on the buttons.
• Air Outlet: No distinct breakage has been identified from the visual in the areas where the hose connects or air enters.

Estimated Lifespan and Production Year

No clear date indicating the production year is legible on the device. However, the round service label on it contains numbers like “98”, “01”, “02” which refer to years. Considering the model’s design language (Aria LX series) and these labels, it can be stated that the device is an older technology produced in the late 1990s or early 2000s.

Potential Failure Risk and Assessment

As a result of the visual inspection, no physical breakage that would impede usage has been detected on the device. However, the following points are important for the buyer:

• Since the product is an old model (falling into the vintage medical device category), the internal motor lifespan and sensor sensitivity may have decreased over time.
• As the hose and mask accessories are hygienic products and appear disorganized/dirty in the bag, they may need to be replaced before use.
• Although the stains on the carrying bag suggest the product might have been stored under unsuitable conditions for a long time, the device’s casing appears relatively clean.

Dimensions and Portability

The device is designed for home use and is of portable dimensions. It is suitable for travel with its special carrying bag.
