Re: VPAP Adapt prescription for BiPAP Auto SV machine

Jamis,

Auto/SV settings: EPAP 5.0, IPAP min 3.0, IPAP max 10.0, BPM 15, 1.2 superscript S or Ti (not sure what this is), Start 4.0

VPAP Adapt prescription for BiPAP Auto SV machine

Hi All, I had my sleep study with a VPAP Adapt. For monetary reasons I wound up with a used Auto/SV that was supposed to have been pre-programmed.

Re: Prescription says VPAP Adapt what is Respironics equivalent?

Jamiswolf, I missed the $275 Craigslist one in Albuquerque by a day or two... I'm running out of time. Every day I feel more and more brain dead. Using a System one Bi-PAP set in Auto CPAP mode as a band-aid until I get an ASV. I'll see if Bandnuts or Nineset are still looking to sell. This site sho...

It appears both the Resmed and the Respironics have been updated. Not sure what the new versions are. I found the Respironics with hu...

Prescription says VPAP Adapt what is Respironics equivalent?

I found a used Respironics Auto/SV Advanced but there are so many variants... Trying to save money but I don't want to buy something I can't use. I have central sleep apnea and was tested and successfully treated on a Resmed VPAP Adapt SV.
