Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

I bet your right... I loaded the new one over the old one figuring it would write over it. I have a MAC and couldn't figure out how to delete or uninstall the old one.
I'll look into it.
Thanks

Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

On my laptop I have a tab that shows a Welcome,Statistics, Daily, Overview and help tabs. On my desktop I have Statistics, Daily, Overview and help, missing the welcome page or tab. How do you turn that welcome tab on?

Thanks

Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

Yes your right not 7.9 or 4.5 should be .79 and .45 like you said. Is there a place that explains the graph numbers? I see leak Rate has a red line. I assume the line means stay under and you have a decent leak rate. But Snore, Resp Rate, Flow Limit... how do I know if those are good or not? Session...

Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

I made the EPR change from 3 to 2 and have posted my results. I am trying to understand how to read this chart but all I can see is things are about the same or going in the wrong direction as I have has AHI of less than .79 in the past. I did feel less labored with EPR of 2. Do you think I should m...

Re: CPAP Resmed S9 breathing labored

At one time my setting was 14.0 but that was 291 pounds ago. When I went back to my sleep study they told me I just barely needed it but I did need it. I think they said 6.0 or something like that. I could say this has been a nightmare but I don't sleep enough to even get icy REM sleep. Personally I...

Hello, I have a problem and question. I have a Resmed S9, humidifier and heated hose with a Resmed FX nasal mask. I have been doing pretty good with it and about a month or 2 ago I noticed my breathing is labored. Setting never changed. Seems I have to work hard to get a comfortable breathing rhythm...
