Re: Resmed S9 latest firmware 905

Last year April, I've got my S9 updated from 0604 to 0905 by ResMed support personnel. The motherboard was replace since 0905 version includes more than software changes.
BTW, the skewness problem was solved in 0905.

Re: Centrals before falling asleep?

I have experienced same problem. But it doesn't usually happen.
When it happens, I just sleep without the machine. Because I was told by Resmed that APAP may cause CSA.

Re: Please help me to convince the doctor to get me sleep study

Just as an observation - my sleep study results showed a total AHI index of 21.3 with 97 events per hour - considered severe by my neurologist. From the time the sleep tech put me on CPAP in that same study, my AHI has been less than 1.0 - every night since (18-months ago) it's around .2, and neuro...

Re: Please help me to convince the doctor to get me sleep study

Thanks IndyDave and Emilia.

Normally, I eat lots of vegetables, and sometimes I use multi-vitamin pill. So, I'm not suppose to lack of vitamin.
Of course, it's a good suggestion, I will talk with doctor about this.

Re: Please help me to convince the doctor to get me sleep study

You could be waking up from the machine itself--8 to 17 is a pretty wide setting, and it forces the machines to "chase your apneas". The pressure changes could be what's disturbing your sleep. If you can print out your data, we can help you narrow that range and you can see if that helps you sleep ...

Re: Please help me to convince the doctor to get me sleep study

An AHI of 1.6...even if it were all "true" centrals is probably still within acceptable limits. Remember the less than 5 AHI standard? But you are still feeling crappy.... Have you thought about adding a overnight recording pulse oximeter to see if your oxygen levels are okay? How many hours of sle...

Re: Please help me to convince the doctor to get me sleep study

I think the fact that you feel lousy all the time should be enough to convince the doctor, but if it's not, is there no other clinic or doctor to see? I was going to suggest you try a FF mask, but if you've tried some (which ones?) were they fitted properly? Maybe you need a different size, etc.......

Re: Has anyone used their cpap WITH HUMIDIFIER onboard a flight?

Don't be so serious. I was using humidifier when i was travelling with FINNAIR flight. As long as I have the permission to use cpap on board, no cabin crew has checked if i was using humidifier.

Re: Anyone want FREE ResMed S8 Filters?

You can use S8 filter on s9 machines.
I've been using it on my s9 autoset, it works fine. I threw it away since I've got s9 filters for free from local hospital.

Re: OK, I give up where can I buy an S9 Autoset Data Card Reader

When I was ordering my S9 Autoset, resmed said that they will give me the card reader if I want. That how I got it.
You can definitely use a generic SD card reader. My laptop has the internal card reader, it works for resscan.
