my diagnosis is moderate /severe central apnea
How was this diagnosis determined?

Are you newly diagnosed? If you have been using CPAP, which machine model?

If you had a study, please post the summary page.

Which model machine was prescribed?

Re: ResMed AirSense 11 - Average data?

If there is a way where I can see the average pressure last night, please point it out to me. Enter the clinical menu and look at the reports. You can change the reporting period - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEx7wkTJHGo I do a quick check each morning of the night's AHI, leak level, and hours ...

Re: EasyLonger Battery Backup for AirCurve 11

BTW, did you notice this? --->
Note: If you power a CPAP, please Turn Off the humidifier & heating tube to extend runtime.
Since you live in FL, you might not need the humidifier.

Re: EasyLonger Battery Backup for AirCurve 11

If you are talking about this model, https://www.amazon.com/EASYLONGER-96000mAh-Portable-Dreamstation-Emergency/dp/B0BW8D3Z2B/ref=sr_1_4?th=1, the description says it has a 24V output and a cable for ResMed 11. This should be all you need. They probably don't mention the AirCurve 11 because it wasn'...

Re: I'm getting really mad at CPAP.com

A few years ago, I started using external resources for hosting images. If there was an easy way, I would delete all images of mine that were hosted on cpaptalk.

I wonder if I’m having very bad apneas that my resmed Airmini isn’t controlling.
Could be. Do you know how to see your machine's AHI number?

Re: Question regarding SD card usage for Airsense 11 Autoset

If I were to go to see my doctor after using the Airsense 11 device without an SD card, how would he have access to my sleep data? "Most" sleep doctors only look at compliance data. They don't have to time to look into the details. But you do using OSCAR or SleepHQ.com. SleepHQ is easier to use and...

Re: Question about sharing sleep data

I was wondering if people share their OSCAR or SleepHQ data here to get guidance and advice. Absolutely. If so, what is the safest (data safety-wise) and most effective way to post my sleep data with everyone to get guidance and advice? What software is the best for sharing my sleep data to help ge...

Are you sure? Most laptops have a built-in card reader. It's a small slot and can be hard to find.

Re: Refurbish or buy new?

I’m talking about refurbishing the one I have, rather than buying a refurbished one. Probably $400 vs $1000 Check out the refurbished and open-box machines at https://www.secondwindcpap.com/#09e4/fullscreen/m=and&q=airsense+10+autoset. They are a reputable supplier.

Re: Refurbish or buy new?

I have the Resmed Autosense 10. I just got the end of life message. Is it better to get it refurbished with a new motor by an authorized repair center, or buy a new one? I’d like to save money, but at the same time, don’t want something that will break. What's your insurance situation? What's the d...
