Re: Interpretation of EncoreViewer 2.0 Reports

Forgot to say: the pressure range of 4 to 16 was originally prescribed by my physician, who has since moved to greener pastures so I can't ask him why! I had the same pressures with the old machine, which was a Remstar M series.

Re: Interpretation of EncoreViewer 2.0 Reports

I looked at your reports. Some questions... How are you feeling? How did you come up with the pressure ranges that are showing? What are your goals? Do the pressure variations bug you? What were you using before this new machine in way of pressure? I could offer what I would do if those were my rep...

Re: Interpretation of EncoreViewer 2.0 Reports

Thanks again everyone for the pointers. I now know what the various terms mean, but I would now like some indication of what "good" and "bad" values are for each of the parameters (AHI, vibratory snore, etc.). I can't find anything by searching this site or Google. Do any of the experienced folks he...

Resmed S8 Elite mask settings

Hello All.
Can anyone tell me what difference the various mask settings on the S8 Elite menu make? I have a Swift mask and my machine is set to Swift, but what actually happens in terms of machine function (if anything), with the various mask settings?

Having watched my provider entering this mode it looks like it's a matter of pressing a combination of the control keys, but my pro...
