Re: C pap machine maintenance

Thanks for the information, I feel like a real dummy now. I have not done any of those things in the about the year I have had it. I am cleaning right away. I like my machine and want to make sure that I get the most benefit from it.

Does anyone else have any additional feedback?

C pap machine maintenance

I own an M Series Auto Flex with full data. I have had it for a year. It is good. I have noticed recently though some minor chest pressure that come and go maybe once or twice a day.

Clueless understanding A flex reporting. Help!

Brain Trust,

When I'm reviewing the report, what is the most important thing that I should be looking for? I do know that I'm averaging about 5 AHI per hour. Someone help me understand what I should be looking for. Leaks? Snoring?

Thanks for the assist!

I have no idea if this is the ramp. I just know that on the old cpap it was set to go from 4cm to 7cm in 30 minutes. Is this ramp what this is?

A Flex M Series Respironics problem

So my therpist had some idea how to set up my M Series A Flex but he did not know about the settings. I noticed on my C-Flex, after about 30 minutes, the setting would go from 4.0cm to 7cm since it was set that way for me. However, on the Aflex, we set on 2 for the A Flex and 4cm, I have found that ...

New to A Flex

So I was on Cpap for a month and went to the Apap. I don't know about you but I felt an immediate difference. I felt that I got some of my best sleep in a while. My therapist was useless, so I have a question for the brain trust. The Aflex part is to assist me with the exhalation or does it detect w...

I did more research. My therapist is working getting me the information that I need to get this installed properly.

But aren't there links that I can just go to so that I can get this on my computer?

Thanks Jim, I'm talking about the Smartcard Reader/Writer Install wizard for Windows OS. I have Vista so it should work. When I attempt to install it the system says Can not find Encore Pro Application This Installation requires Encore 1.3 or greater. The install CD says that this is a version 2.0

So if you have 0 AHI Does this mean better rest?

So if you have 0 AHI with CPAP. What does this mean? Better Rest? Better regeneration?

What is this exactly?
