You are right. The machine also works at 220. You can find that adapter easily, but better if you already come with it. Greetings from Spain.

If AVAPS assures volume, wouldnt it be a solution for centrals, where there is no volume breathing?

As far as I know both treat centrals, but what are indications for each? Thanks.

You could try a homemade mask liner or you could buy a Pad-A-Cheek mask liner for your mask. I've made a mask liner for my mask and it works well. Which material you use to make them? Thanks. I use the Mirage Quattro as well! Mine would leak very bad and i ended up with a bloody nose. I decided to ...

Because she ends opening the mouth. Thanks.

We use the Mirage quattro full face mask. And cover her eyes with bandits which stick from the bottom of her eyes, so air leaks slip up. This, on paper. So we have two main problems: dry eye and thin skin protected with cotton bandits in the bridge of the nose. I would like to have another mask to t...

For this post, in a way, I guess it doesn't matter. 1) Correlation only, 2) Alzheimer's causes Sleep Apnea or 3) Sleep Apnea cause Alzheimer's -- Each of them would support maintaining effective xPAP therapy. Not. If 2, then I have no desire to be treated. The sooner out, the better. What if you ge...

Ozig, I appreciate very much your support and dedication helping CPAP users in this forum. Thanks.

Ozig, you get the wrong end of the stick. As Miguel Servet described blood circulation some hundreds years ago, that knowledge I talk about is valid nowadays. Those were only examples. If someone looks for " coconut oil atherosclerosis " in GOOGLE ACADEMICS, it will be found 10 500 links: http://sch...

Again, any proved therapy for any disease should go under elaborated tests, under scientific method. Then it is published in a scientific journal. An then published worldwide. That is how medicine works as I understand medicine. If anyone thinks medicine may be other things, it's his/her choice. Th...

Here you have one study in hamsters. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10673913

May be you think the worry of those scientists is how different animals process different type of oils.

:shock: Sorry. I don't go by abstacts, and refuse to pay $31 for a study done on rabbits and publish in 1988. I am not a rabbit. I would not do well on rabbit food. As you see I haven't had to go to the last news to find evidences: 1988. I bet you read complete medical researches and understand eve...

The fact about the relation between LDL and atherogenesis is known a quarter of a century ago, as it says in MEDSCAPE: OK but where are the studies linking intake of coconut oil in particular to the small particle atherogenic LDL???
