Hi ! Anyone got experiences with ResMed S9 heated hose? Does it completely fix rainouts problems? I live in quebec (canada) it's currently -13'F outside and the air is very dry. I tried using a hose cover, putting my CPAP lower than the bed, i still get waken up by my mask full of water. My insuranc...

I am not convinced that increasing pressure provides relief to arousals that are not obstructive related. You are probably right. I have taken a look closely at my sleep study results and I don't have less microarousals at higher pressure. The only thing that changes is that I have less sleep level...

Hi! I need some advices. I am a 29 years old man, living in quebec (canada). I have been diagnosed with light-moderate sleep apnea syndrome. I am under CPAP therapy for about 3 years. From the first day I have been using a CPAP I have noticed big improvement in my life quality. I got more energy, mo...

Hi, I own a REMstar Auto M Series with A-Flex, I have noticed that when I download data (from the card) to Encore Pro 2.2, the time at which the "therapy data" is displayed is a few hours too late. For example, last night I went to bed from 1:00 AM to 7:00 and in Encore Pro it says it's from 4:00 AM...

Thank you for answer torontoCPAPguy ... The thing is, as I mentionned the problem doesn't happen when I use my Swift II... it's only with the Swift FX! Now I know you would say "Then why don't you use the Swift II" ? Well like everybody i don't like using a CPAP, but I would find it less bothering w...

Hi, I am 28 year old man, with light sleep apnea. I am under CPAP treatment since about 3 years. I have been using Swift II mask since the beginning. It works good, not super but... It does the job! I have recently got the new Swift FX mask and I just felt in love with it! It's so comfortable, it's ...

That's in my plans too so that's exactly why a titration software will be required... I can't believe they just don't give titrating CPAP to everybody... just think about all the costs involved for re-doing a polysomnography!! or the costs of sleeping with the wrong pressure.. tire at work, sick, in...

I'm looking at the different xPAP available on https://www.cpap.com... especially that one: 420SP CPAP with H2O Heated Humidifier and Silverlining Software https://www.cpap.com/productpage-bundle/420SP-CPAP-H2o-Heated-Humidifier-Silverlining-Software-Bundle.html and that one: 420E CPAP with Heated H...

No, in fact i have some loaner CPAP landed by my hospital.. i just got new insurances and i'm shopping for a brand new cpap, and this is one of my criterias, a damn good monitoring software in the mean time, gonna ask my GF to take a look at me [quote="Flying_Norseman"]Do you have software that can ...

I called them yesterday and they told me to send them a prescription with details of the xPAP i want, so they can tell me if it would be accepted or not ... So you're saying I just need to have my doctor prescribe me a precise cpap, with brand and model, then the insurance company will accept it ? o...

How can I know if my mouth is opening while I sleep? other than I'm gonna be really tired in the day... I use a Swift mask and CPAP since april 2007 ... I have seen improvement but it could be better, I guess... maybe im leaking ?

OMG! I thought "our collective wisdom" was just a figure of speech, meaning to read the whole forum... hahah just found what you were talking about, thanks i'm gonna take a look at it your APAP sounds pretty cool, i'm going to have a look at it too... lots of reading ! Hi, Gourou and welcome to our ...

Pretty good point... I have read that long debate thread about self-adjusting my pressure and I really love the idea! as someone mentionned, our "needed pressure" has been determined by only one night in a cold little room in an hospital... things might have changed since, and also i'm sure every bo...

Thanks dieselgal, I followed the link in your signature and found out https://www.cpap.com

I think some CPAP have logging and monitor features? (like connect to a computer and upload data) What does it keep track of exactly ?

Hi, I'm having severe sleep apnea and I'm using a "loaner" CPAP from my hospital. I finally got a medical insurance and now I want to buy my own ! The hospital landed me a CPAP which I can't tell the model... it has an humidifier with a heater and a 20 minutes ramp. I know some criterias I want for ...
