ResMed won't allow US suppliers to ship their equipment to Canada, forcing patients to buy
it at inflated Canadian prices. Respironics machines can be shipped across the border.

Remember that different brands score events differently. Each company has it's own formula, especially
for hypopneas. So it's possible that two different brands of machine provide the exact same therapeutic
results but report different data.

The DME can put your settings "on" the SD card.

Just replace the SD card with a new blank card when you receive your machine.

Or simpler still, just re-format the SD card when you get home.

You will then have to re-input your settings yourself.
But, most people end up changing some or most of those settings anyway.
