Re: ACR38 Card reader

When inserting the card, turn the card with the gold side up. On this site there is a thread on...

S9
I contacted my DME today about swaping out my S8 Elite II for the resmed S9, I was told I could swap out the S9 but would have to buy the humidifier for the S9 myself since it was a purchased item. I am on the rental plan form medicare, I was wanting to get other opinions as if I should do that or n...

New Mask
I went to my dr. today for follow up and I told him about the problems having with the ff Quattro and not being able to sleep with it. He wrote a prescription for a resmed Swift LT for her and a responsics chinstrap. Does the swift lt require a different size hose?

Does Remed Still Manufacture S8 Elite II
I wanted a S9 when I got my machine but my cardiologist said I didn't need it. When I got the machine S8 Elite II from my DME he said it was manufactured in 2010, I was just checking before I go to my drs. appt. Also do DME's who provide CPAPS required to have a RT in house?

Apenas or Central
What do the Apneas bar mean when a number 10 and 11 is showing on the bars. On the bar with #11 it is showing a long 30 min hypopnea bar. My RT said these could be central apneas? These have just started showing up one night. My pressure was fine and the leak was under the threshold.

Re: resmed card reader not recognized any more
You may want to try this: when you get to no devices detected, just click ok; at the download; put your card in the reader and then plug in your card reader (don't plug your card reader and card before; I had to do this before I could get it to recognize the reader.

Re: Is a prescription required for a pulse oximeter?
To me it no difference then purchasing a blood pressure monitor or a blood sugar monitor. With the pulse ox meter you cannot harm yourself with the meter, you only get readings as with a blood pressure monitor or a blood sugar monitor. So what is the big deal with having a prescription , other than ...
