Re: Do You Dump Out Your Distilled Water Daily?

Thanks for asking the question. The goal here has always been to implement a process that ensures complete sanitization of the system components prior to reuse. However, given my short time in therapy (approx 3 wks), I can only report the metric that weekly cleaning has been achieved with refills as...

Re: bi-levels...pro's & con's please share

Greetings, While I can't provide an experience based comparison of the two since I've only been using BIPAP for a whole 7 days now.....I can imagine that without the bilevel flows that breathing would not be as natural as I'm finding it with my machine (see info in signature).
