Re: Upgrading The Defunct Resmed 2G/3G Modems

So like I originally said, you don't have a clue about MyAir. Several forum members seemed to think that their clinicians were using MyAir, but that is probably incorrect. That is the CLUE that I offered in the first place and that was the principle point I wanted to make, to avoid confusion. Appar...

Dogslobber: No misquote, here is what you said: You are completely wrong about what MyAir is. Nothing dishonest about that at all, it’s EXACTLY what you said. ***************************** Clinicians and DME use AirView. Personally I don’t use MyAir at all, but when I set up originally the app requi...

Doctors do use AirView, and not MyAir.
Which is what I said, thank you.

As I understand it MyAir is a Bluetooth driven app, while “AirView” is driven by access to the cellular modem in the users device.

Re: Strong correlation between movements, flow rate dislocations and appearance of apneas?

Strange that's never been considered before... Of course it's been considered before, but normally for standard domestic users it (false positives) is couched in speculation. Use of an accelerometer (such as the ring) or recording oximeter can provide evidence thereby limiting the need for speculat...

Re: Strong correlation between movements, flow rate dislocations and appearance of apneas?

Very interesting and important implication! The operating theory with consumer XPAP devices is that disruptions of flow is caused by airway collapse, full or partial. The remedial action to this collapse is to apply additional pressure.* However if some flow disruptions are actually caused by moveme...

Re: Trying to figure out how to use P95 And P Mean data on report so i can adjust APAP ranges if necessary

@jman1965 If it not otherwise obvious, the indexed numbers (AHI, SNI, etc) are simply the number of events (of that type) divided by to total hours that the Luna is running. Consequently, Assume that you have your Luna running for 8 hours. It is possible that you could have 8 apneas in one hour but ...

Re: Trying to figure out how to use P95 And P Mean data on report so i can adjust APAP ranges if necessary

It is the mask that establishes the intentional leak rate, not the machine. Leak rates that are in excess of the intentional rate are unintentional and the user should strive to minimize these.
Documentation that accompanies the mask will reveal the intentional leak rate at various pressures.

Re: Trying to figure out how to use P95 And P Mean data on report so i can adjust APAP ranges if necessary

I pulled up my compliance report on my Luna 11, it shows P95 8.0 cmH2o and P Mean 6.5 cmH20 AHI 0.1 SNI 0.0 Leak 24.4 LPM. I am trying to decipher what theses values mean. What do those values mean? P95 of 8.5 means that 95% of your session was at a pressure of 8.0 OR LESS P is the simple average p...

Re: Apneaboard vs cpaptalk

FWIW, the reason for the ads is simple. Cpaptalk is funded by a DME. Apneaboard is not funded and therefore has to "pay the bills" by providing ad space. In fact they solicit donations. The ads have nothing to do with registering. On the right had side of the screen (on the apneaboard site) there ar...

Re: Wrinkles not indentations or redness

I actually never knew I had apnea until I went to the ER in an ambulance, and found out that I had atrial fibrillation which can cause a-fib. Feel sure that you mean that your ER trip was for a-fib, and you were subsequently told that sleep apnea can exacerbate arrhythmias like AFIB. Also expect th...

Re: Smart watches and sleep apnea ?

IMO, there is something that we're not accounting for and that's the possibility of artifact readings. I don't think that the AW can give an artifact reading. If for any reason during the 15 seconds something is not right, the entire report of blood oxygen level fails, and it's not recorded. I beli...
