I personally use CPAP myself and it definately helps when talking to my patients because little tricks I found along the way are useful when trying to troubleshoot. Theres always a demand for RT's and you can go anywhere. Im...

Re: DME Equipment Cost to Me ???

Re: ResScan- how do I print all notes?

Ah. I see what you're talking about. Unfortunately I'm not sure you can do that. My company switched to easy care and its much better for resmed patients but I haven't had to print any notes from it yet. That is a very interesting case though. Definitely a good research paper! Keep me updated if you...

Re: respironics 560p ejected card

No you're fine. The machine itself holds data so whenever you insert the SD card it automatically downloads any info it missed. ^^^^^thats right about it flashing letting you know the SD is out though.

Re: onset apneas

While in stage 3 most patients don't show events. I'd say follow your lab protocol. But if their AHI is high in 1,2 and or REM then yeah I'd split them but like I said, follow lab protocol.

Re: ResScan- how do I print all notes?

If you're talking about all the report data for more than one day you have to go up to the task bar and click on review. From there you can edit what days you want to include in the report.

Re: Nothing Fits - Mask Advice

Fisher and Paykel has a new mask out called the pilaro. It's one size fits all and the concept behind it is it inflates to create a good seal, no matter what size nostril. The headgear is stretchy too so no pressure marks,

Re: Boomerang, Gecko nose pads. Do they work?

Hi there, have you tried a full face mask called the ultra mirage? It runs a bit smaller than the Quattro but is a lot like it. It seals pretty good around the eyes and nose because the nose area is a bit wider whereas the Quattro is narrow and sometimes pinches and causes high leaks in the eyes. Th...
