Meet the ResMed AirSense 11: Smarter Sleep Starts Here

Let’s talk about sleep. More importantly, let’s talk about what happens when sleep becomes easier, more comfortable, and just plain smarter. That’s where the ResMed AirSense 11 comes in. Whether you’re just starting your CPAP journey or you’ve been working it for years, this sleek little machine is here to change the way you sleep for the better.

So, what’s all the fuss about? Let’s have a look at why the AirSense 11 is getting so much love from sleep apnea users around the world.

What is the AirSense 11?

The ResMed AirSense™ 11 is a next-generation device for treating sleep apnea, designed to make therapy more comfortable and easier to manage. It offers advanced digital support tools like Personal Therapy Assistant, Test Drive, and Care Check-In. With built-in over-the-air updates, you’ll receive the latest software and features automatically, right from the comfort of your home.

It’s designed to make therapy feel natural for beginners and for those who’ve used previous models like the AirSense 10. Using the AirSense 11 feels like upgrading from a Nokia to a smartphone... yes, it’s that good!

A Look at the Features

Smart therapy modes

The ResMed AirSense 11 isn’t just another CPAP machine, it’s a powerhouse ready to take on your sleep apnea in the way that works best for you. With three unique therapy modes, it adapts to your needs and ensures you’re getting the best possible sleep, night after night. Here’s how:

  • AutoSet Mode: Whether you need a little more pressure during an obstruction or a slight decrease when you're breathing easy, AutoSet has got it covered. No need to wake up or fiddle with settings – it’s all taken care of for you, constantly monitoring your breathing and adjusting the pressure automatically, so you can just relax and sleep soundly.
  • AutoSet for Her Mode: Ladies, we’ve got you covered! AutoSet for Her is specially designed to address how sleep apnea affects women differently. It delivers a more gentle, responsive pressure adjustment to make sure you're comfy and supported, no matter how you sleep. It’s like having a CPAP machine that really gets you and your needs, providing a more tailored experience for better sleep every night.
  • CPAP Mode: Some people just like things simple and straightforward – and that's where CPAP mode comes in. If your doctor has recommended a fixed pressure setting, CPAP mode will stick to that, delivering a consistent airflow throughout the night. No surprises, no fluctuations – just steady, reliable treatment so you can rest easy knowing exactly what to expect.

With all these options, the AirSense 11 can meet just about any sleep need. Whether you’re after an automated experience, a mode designed for women, or a classic, steady pressure, it’s the perfect choice for your sleep therapy.

Built-in Sleep Coaching

Pairing the AirSense 11 with the ResMed’s myAir app via Bluetooth can enhance your sleep apnea therapy experience. myAir helps you get started, monitor your progress, and stay motivated with personalised guidance, right from your phone or tablet.

Once you're up and running, the app also tracks your sleep data and provides personalised tips, progress scores, and encouragement to keep you motivated. It’s like having a sleep coach in your pocket, helping you build confidence and stay on track with your therapy from day one.

Sleep data that matters

This isn’t just about counting hours. The AirSense 11 wirelessly delivers detailed, clinically relevant information about your sleep, including monitoring the different types of obstructions and respiratory effort-related arousals (RERAs). That kind of data gives you and your healthcare provider a clear picture of how your treatment is working and if adjustments are needed, they can often be made effortlessly thanks to the remote monitoring, so no need to take your machine into the clinic.

Updates from the cloud

Another smart touch? The AirSense 11 receives automatic software updates through the cloud. That means your machine can get new features, improvements, or bug fixes without you needing to lift a finger. No cables, no hassle. Just the latest technology delivered straight to your device, keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

Touchscreen simplicity

No more fumbling with dials or confusing menus in the middle of the night. The AirSense 11 is designed with everyday use in mind, featuring a bright, responsive touchscreen that makes adjusting your settings and viewing your sleep reports feel incredibly easy. It dims the screen after a few seconds avoiding any ambient light. 

Looks as good as it works

We all know that a lot of CPAP machines can look pretty clinical, but the AirSense 11 breaks that mould with a sleek, modern design that actually looks nice on your bedside table. It’s compact, clean, and blends in easily with your home setup. No more hiding your machine in a drawer or behind a lamp.
