Are you using exhale relief (EPR) and if so at what setting? What mode of operation are you using...exactly what are ALL the settings? Do you know how to go into the clinical setup menu are to verify all the settings? https://sleep.tnet.com/home/files/resmed-airsense-10-clinical-guide.pdf What soft...

Exhale relief (EPR) = 3 What mode of operation = APAP RAMP = 5 cm for 10 minutes (am going to set it to OFF, just don't need it) Software used = SleepyHead Yes, I have the clinical setup menu Will prepare the image a little later, though the pressure change is detectable when you move the vertical l...

Just started to use an APAP machine -- ResMed AirSense 10 -- after 5 years of being on a CPAP machine. Noticed that the air pressure falls (rather consistently throughout the night) below the preset minimum of 10 cm occasionally showing 6, 7 up to 9... cm. In all other respects, the machine seems to...

I am mostly a right side sleeper. Once I turn on my side, air leaks start almost immediately. I am reading about contour pillows. Do they help? Which one would you recommend? Thanks!

[quote="Pugsy"] To Pugsy: You cannot imagine how thankful I am!! You know, I feel and can see by looking at my "good" initial week that, potentially, I can be a successful CPAP patient. This doctor of 30 years of experience is such a piece of nothing that it does not take him a second to simply disc...

Did you ever get things situated so you could use the software to see exactly what that AHI consists of? Do you spend a lot of time awake with the mask and machine on? We really need to see the software reports to have any clue what is going on with you. During the initial "good" week (average AHI ...

I had a comprehensive overnight polysomnography in June 2012 and was diagnosed with OSA:AHI was 62.5, including hypopneas and central apneas. During the CPAP titration in August 2012, at a pressure of 13cmH20, the events per hour decreased to 0. The 7-day initial period of the CPAP therapy was based...

I am (almost) new for this CPAP field, just 7 weeks. I have a smart card in the machine. I have downloaded the SleepyHead software. I understand, I need a media -- a card reader -- to download the data from the smart card to the software on my computer. What card reader you would suggest I buy? What...

Pugsy wrote:Is your machine the Pro with Auto IQ? Or did they give you a trial with a machine had APAP mode and change to a straight cpap machine?

The machine is Pro with Auto-Trial.

The auto-adjust pressure mode delivers CPAP therapy while automatically adjusting the pressure level to meet patient’s needs. The constant pressure mode maintains a pre-set pressure level. The auto-adjust mode seems to be flexible and therefore more beneficial. I was prescribed the constant pressure...

A higher than we want AHI is not always treated with more pressure... I thought that the fact that I was getting "good" (under 5) AHI during the first, auto-trial week of my CPAP therapy, says something about my responding to the CPAP therapy well. The consistently high AHI levels that followed the...

I have selected the machine in my member profile (Edit Equipment), but it does not appear on my postings. The other pieces of equipment do appear. Am I missing something?

I had a comprehensive overnight polysomnography done in May 2012 and was diagnosed with sever obstructive sleep apnea. The overall AHI was 62.5 . During the second overnight sleep study (CPAP titration) at a CPAP pressure of 13 cmH20 the events per hour decreased to 0 (zero). I started the CPAP ther...
