I'm just wondering whether the term CLEAR AIRWAY means Central Apneas. Does anyone know whether this is the case?

My sister was diagnosed with OSA many years ago 10 + and tried a CPAP but found it to be incompatible. She was put on an oxygen concentrator and has used it since. She has been unwell with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia for so long that I suggested she try my CPAP because they have improved a lot ...

I have the same sort of problem, only I can't breath properly whenever I lay down due to congestion and blockage. It was so bad that I had to take the mask off because I couldn't breath. I worked out that I had to have the starting pressure turned up to 7cm H2o pressure rather than the usual 4. This...

Mon - are you a doctor, or just like to speculate with other people's health? There are many sites that you can search that will confirm what I suggested. Obviously there are many reasons for frequency but not all of them are bad. Do a Search for Frequent Urination and Sleep Apnea - Sleep Guide and...

Thank you everyone for the info. I now have what I want thanks to this forum.

Does anyone know where I can get a clinician's Manual for the AirSense 10 AutoSet?

Yes that's exactly what I want. Thank you. I appreciate your help.

Aaron, I had the same problem as you. I solved it by purchasing a 2" wide elastic headband ( found in the grocery store or any drug store, usually packaged in 3's, and cheap) and placing it over my head and nose (think Indian, only lower). Keep the bottom edge of the headband edge at the bottom of ...

I need a new Resmed Liberty short hose. Does anyone know if it can be replaced without buying the whole mask?

She is using a full face mask. I'll suggest she turn the humidity up a bit then and see if that helps.

Thanks Guys, I have now got Sleepy Head and it's up and working.

I love the P10 but really wonder why it doesn't have a swivel attachment. Does anyone know why they didn't make it with a swivel. Perhaps that's a way they can make an upgrade in the future and they've left it so it can be made better in the future. I feel it is very much better to have the hose abo...

I have EPR on my ResMed machine. What is the benefit and is it worth trying?
