Think you are referring to a BIPAP! "BiPAP refers to Bilevel or two-level Positive Airway Pressure. ... While CPAP generally delivers a single pressure, BiPAP delivers two: an inhale pressure and an exhale pressure. These two pressures are known as inhalation positive airway pressure (IPAP) and exhalation positive airway pressure (EPAP)."

No, it was an APAP. Automatic Positive Airway Pressure. A CPAP is continuous pressure at the same force. APAP is more pressure when you breathe in and less when you breathe out. It does other things like detect how much pressure you need at different levels of your sleep cycle of sleep, thus APAP.
