CSA0890, Considering your young age and your MG I will refrain from making any suggestions as to the machine you should consider other than to say that generally machines with more features can be operated in modes to mimic those of the simpler machines but a vanilla cpap can be nothing more than a ...

...your "high-end rich person's" suspension. Hence your run down battery in the morning. . The later model "high-end rich person's" car that I drive will shut off whatever unruly accessory that refuses to shut off so that you don't end up with a dead battery. I agree with _SWS's suggestion that you...

Re: new interface in the approval pipeline

Den, I too, am curious about the "boardroom" discussions in all sectors of the cpap retailing industry. I think Johnny occasionally gives us a little peek here. Regarding the mobility chair industry... seems the circumstance addressed by the poll is as a result of downward price pressure which is li...

The flaw in their logic is that "higher prices" do not necessarily translate into better care. The daily testimonials offered on this forum prove it. What they need to do is mandate "strict enforcement" of care standards offered by their dealers. If a ResMed products reseller is abusing it's custome...

DSM, That thread was much funnier before all my posts go deleted. That actually was an interesting post which explored the legalities (in the USA) of selling cpaps. Mikesus went to the effort to get the scoop from the FDA and then ignored the answer he got so that he could still assert that it is il...

DSM, Thanks for several great explanations of what we can expect (and what we can't) from our autos. Selfseeker, The way I have understood the circumstance of an auto detecting and responding to apneas as they happen is that it would be likely that the rapid increase in pressure would cause an arous...

Apria was my DME they never gave me a new mask, they never gave me a new filter or hose. I don't understand how a company can refuse to give someone replacement supplies when they ask for it?! Was it after the however many months they require when you asked? That's just not right. It's easy... they...
