Re: Lower average pressure with AirSense 11 Autoset

Ok, just so folks can see what the OP is talking about. This is a screenshot from Resscan, since OSCAR displays the maximum settting instead of the maximum observed pressure in its summary/overview graphs. Ignore the AHI spikes, it was the holidays and there might have been food and (especially) bev...

Re: Lower average pressure with AirSense 11 Autoset

Same thing for me, average pressure drop with no discernible change in results. I have a graph, but the board seems to be too full for attachments.

Re: A question to those who have successfully mouthtaped

The cover roll tape works for me but takes a layer off my skin when removing in the morning. Does anyone have suggestions for making removal less painful? Thanks to all. Cavilon durable barrier cream, just a dab spread where the tape will be, will help protect the skin. Also, be sure you're pulling...

That's very likely what you're looking for. I did not use that when I set mine up.

Re: Configuring FlashAir SD to sync to DropBox or a NAS folder

Until a couple years ago, I had my Flash Air card in my machine assigned an IP and as a network drive on my previous laptop. I could read it directly into Oscar (Resscan didn't like it), but I also wrote a routine using FreeFileSync and the Windows Task Manager to sync the Flash Air to an SD card in...

Re: Terrific mouth tape

I started mouth taping about 10 days ago and my lips are starting to get irritated. I have been using Cover Roll 2" tape. It does a great job at preventing mouth leaks, but can be a bit painful pulling off in the morning. I am wondering if putting a single layer of this silicone tape that Deborah d...

Re: Mouth Taping

Hypafix has a gentle touch tape that may be better for you. Also consider using a skin barrier cream (Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream), a very small dab spread where you tape has been really good for me in avoiding the little red welts I was getting occasionally from tape removal.

Re: MaskFit APP on Businesswire

I used a similar app to scan for custom swim goggles. They fit perfectly, don't leak, and don't require the straps to be tight at all, just enough to keep good contact around the eyes.

Re: Bleep Peeps Please Help

Okay....here's the skinny about those little bumps that we have to make sure the little arms are in between.... Per Stuart...they are there so that the port is rotated so that nothing digs into the person's skin. That's all those little bumps do...keep the port from being in a position to potential...

Re: Bleep/DreamPort nasal mask review thread

You should play with it using some used ports where you can see how they're supposed to latch in. There should always be "clicks" when it is latched properly and it should never just pull lose without squeezing the tabs. Make sure those tabs are aligned properly, There's two little nubs on the "outs...
