ASV - DECISION: AirCurve 10 vs. DreamStation ASV
I know many of you struggle with your treatment and have difficulty obtaining ASV therapy if you need it. Hopefully this will help. About six years ago, I posted my problems, frustrations and final success. Originally, my doc prescribed straight CPAP therapy. With that treatment, I had an AHI of ove...

(ASV) Apnea Index --> .020710366
I don't want to look a Gift Horse in the mouth, but this has me concerned that my new ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV may NOT be recording correctly. After five years of using a Respironics System One autoSV, with a "normal" Apnea Index of about .8 to 1.0, I switched to the AirCurve with these results: Numbe...

Re: (ASV) Freedom CPAP Battery with AirCurve 10 ASV
This is an update. BY THE WAY: I didn't mention it in the first post, but I did NOT use humidification. On the first charge: Night One: 5 hours 23 minutes Night Two: 6 hours 17 minutes Night Three: 5 hours 45 minutes Night Four: 6 hours 37 minutes (Yeah, I know I'm not getting enough sleep!) After t...

Re: (ASV) Freedom CPAP Battery with AirCurve 10 ASV
Hi CapnLoki, Yep, I agree with your logic. As a matter of fact, I had another ASV user ask me about the kit. That was my advice to him - just buy one battery and test it. I bought two because everything I read made me think one would not be sufficient. Your comment about the airline got me thinking ...

(ASV) Freedom CPAP Battery with AirCurve 10 ASV
This is a review of the Freedom CPAP Battery. We have a trip planned to Israel. Both the trip over and back leave around 11:00PM. I evaluated the various alternatives for a "portable" battery backup for my AirCurve 10 ASV. I actually found a Freedom CPAP Battery source that acknowledged that the Air...

(ASV) My Rocky Road: S9 Elite -> S1 ASV -> AirCurve 10 ASV
I haven’t posted very much for the last few years. Recently I posted regarding the replacement of my System One autoSV. Afterward, I received a message from a user who had read my ASV posts from back in 2012 and indicated that they had helped. The user asked me to do an update. So, here's the update...

Re: ASV - Flight to Israel & Electricity in Israel
Hi Julie, We will be traveling throughout the country. I've read several articles, below are just a couple of comments that concerned me with CPAP: Israel uses what is called a "H" type plug. This plug, which is unique to Israel, has two flat prongs that form a V-shape and a flat vertical grounding ...

Re: Calling on fellow ASV users
Hi Jordie, I also used a S1 ASV for five years. Four months ago, I switched to the same mask as yours, Amara View. I used it with the S1 ASV and now with the AirCurve 10. I don't have ANY problems with leaks. Plus, it is adjusted very loosely on my face. On a normal night I have MANY pressure spikes...

ASV - Flight to Israel & Electricity in Israel
We have booked a trip to Israel. Both United flights between Newark and Tel Aviv are overnight. I have checked with United and my AirCurve 10 ASV is acceptable for use on board. I have purchased (with authorization to return it if it doesn't provide adequate power for the ASV) a Freedom Dual Battery...

ASV - AirCurve 10 vs. DreamStation ASV
Haven't posted for several years. I've searched, but can't find any directly related postings, so . . . I'd like to ask, particularly from experienced ASV users, your opinions regarding the AirSense 10 vs. DreamStation ASV. And also your opinions regarding how the new units compare to Respironics Sy...
