Chin strap or oral plug?

I'm new to having a CPAP, but I'm liking the results. My pressure is a 7. My headaches are better and I'm not sleeping all day. I've been looking at the results over the last week and see a trend towards fewer apneas, but the hypopneas remain relatively constant. I've also noticed that as I get more...

Sleep on your belly instead.

This is a trick for sleeping on your belly: Put a pillow below your belly button as a bolster to keep your back posture optimal. A thin columnar pillow does the best. Tilt your head to one side. Elevate your head just enough to keep your mask from digging into the mattress. Use another pillow to blo...

New Respironics Viewer

Respironics' are obviously the most popular. When I was shopping for DME's I got the impression the M-Series is the only one DME's promote, barring a doctor's orders.

Encore Pro - no full reports spanning interactions

Is there a way to span interactions and get a full report? I don't see it.
