I have a ResMed AirSense 10 with nasal pillow.. It starts at a pressure of 5 with a 20 minute ramp up. On and off, and much more frequently lately, the
pressure will jump to 17 or 18 within 3-4 minutes. If I shut the machine off and then restart it, it will sometimes operate properly, but more often
than not this phenomenon will reoccur. Last night it happened 4 times. The last time I simply let it go, and tried to sleep. If I do that, the machine stops
recording any further usage time. Has anyone else had this happen, and does anyone have an explanation?
almost immediate ramp up to high pressure
Re: almost immediate ramp up to high pressure
Sounds like it is malfunctioning. How long have you had it? It has a 2 year warranty...needs to go back to whomever you got it from.

Thanks Pugsy. Have an appointment with my provider today.
Re: almost immediate ramp up to high pressure
I had a similar issue with my 18 month old PR DreamStation Auto BiPAP.
Pugsy gave me the same excellent advice and it was replaced on warranty.
Contact your supplier ASAP.
I had to pay shipping both ways as I am from Canada but problem arose in USA on our vacation.
Sure glad I followed Pugsy's advice.

Re: almost immediate ramp up to high pressure
Yes, it sounds like it's not working property. Since, I don't use the ramp (or want to), I don't know whether my ramp works correctly or not, either.
I would state that the ramp could also be accelerated because of respiratory distress.
In this case, it appears to be the former.
