Re: Newbie - What is the best AHI you got?

10X.

What is the meaning of EPR levels 1, 2 or 3?
After changing the lower pressure rate and the EPR, should I expect lower AHI?

Re: Newbie - What is the best AHI you got?

Pressure varies day by day. The machine is set 4-14. Average usage around 10-11.
EPR set to 3.
Sleep studey suggested 11.

Re: Need USB cable for S8 Autoset Spirit II

Hi. I am based in Israel. Can replacement card reader ACR38 do the job? I saw here some posts on it.
Seems that it is less expensive than OEM.

Re: Starter happily on board!

Thank you for your kind reply.

Is it possible that after using APAP I will discover that I sould use more or less stable pressure and no longer have usage for the APAP?
Will I need to change to fixd pressure CPAP (P.S. what is the term for such machine?)

Thanks

Re: Starter happily on board!

Thank you so much! Questions- 1. Why is it preffered to take an auto machine rather than fixed pressure? 2. What is the benefit of using humidifier? 3. I had problems using temporary fixed pressure machine (set to 11cm) with Swift mask. Will auto CPAP with EPR and Swift LT do better? Many many thank...
