Re: Flow limitations not lowering with BiPAP/Bilevel

How do you tell between what is artifact and what isn't?

Re: In desperate need of ASV

So the thousands of dollars price difference is firmware only? That is insane if so

Can't you lower the room temperature? I wake up lots of times if its 70 f degrees.

Your cheapest solution is to buy a used Airsense 10, replace the blower motor, and Airbreak it.
Does airbreak mean its like an exact copy of the ASV version in terms of like the hardware (motor motherboard) just like a software change?

Re: In desperate need of ASV

I can sell you a 0 hour Respironics Dreamstation ASV machine for $600 if you want. Please note that these machines have been recalled due to a foam concern. It will still function normally and then in the future you can eventually get a Resmed ASV or something. The foam is also removeable without ca...

Re: Looking to buy an ASV machine

Your conclusions are likely incorrect. Care to post why you believe: had complex, mixed apnea, and how severe it was why it caused you to fail If you had trouble tolerating CPAP 10 years ago, you will likely have a greater difficulty with ASV. If he has complex sleep apnea he is obviously gonna hav...

Re: Adapting to ASV

As someone who struggled too with an ASV, mine did take a long time but man it was so worth it. The best thing you can do is to wear it while you are awake. So if you are reading,watching, on your phone/laptop you can just have it on. I think this makes your brain tolerate it and adjust to the ASV m...

Re: Old Machine Still Useful?

You can always remove the foam that is the reason for the recall. It is a pretty easy thing to do for this version of machine.

Re: Scalp reaction to headgear????

Have you tried something like the offerings that Pad A Cheek has or is it a reaction due to pressure?

Re: Low voltage/machine reset

I did try a new outlet in a different room and its the same result. The machine has 23,000 hours so it may be coming to an end. Luckily I have the upgraded Bipap ASV Advanced 960 machine as backup with only like 800 hours on it. I am going to have to remove the foam on this one like I did the other ...

Low voltage/machine reset

My ASV Respironics machine keeps resetting when turning on. After a few attempts/resets it stays on. I tried switching power cords which had a difference appearance to the original and it turned on normally, however about 15 minutes in, the machine beeped and said low voltage. What should I do? Shou...

My question is, how long does it typically take to switch machines and have your bod...

Re: Husband says CPAP is scary and unattractive...

Your husband is pretty delusional about the effectiveness of your machine. Sounds like instead of learning about your device and your sleep needs he just rejects you and your needed machine. That to me sounds like someone who can't make small mental adjustments in their life and that is what is trul...

Re: Help with ASV settings…

I feel like all ASVs dont feel natural. I mean with Resmed youll probably adapt either but I can tell you Respironics was really difficult for me to get used to. But once you do it is amazing
