Your cpap machine is dual voltage (100–240V) — works in Cuba with just a plug adapter.
§ 01 · The verdict
It depends where your device is from.
A device's voltage rating is set when it's manufactured. The country it was built for is the question that decides everything else.

Your cpap machine is dual voltage (100–240V) — works in Cuba with just a plug adapter.
§ 02 · The science
What actually happens at the outlet.
The mismatch isn't subtle. Voltage is the pressure pushing electrons through the device — too much, and components fail. Too little, and they don't do their job.
Your cpap machine has a built-in voltage regulator that automatically handles Cuba's 110V/220V. It runs the same as at home. The only thing to solve is the plug shape.
How to check your device
Check the power brick (external power supply) that connects to your CPAP, not the machine itself. The label on the brick should show 'Input: 100-240V 50/60Hz'. Most machines made after 2010 are dual-voltage. If yours is older, contact the manufacturer.

§ 05 · Field notes
Things worth knowing in advance.
The small details that save trips — drawn from real cpap machine owners traveling to Cuba.
§01
Always carry your CPAP in your carry-on. It's classified as medical equipment and doesn't count toward your carry-on limit.
§02
Bring a doctor's letter stating your medical need — especially helpful at customs.
§03
Pack a short extension cord — hotel outlets are often nowhere near the bed.
§04
If you use a humidifier, bring distilled water or buy locally. Tap water minerals will damage the chamber.
