Re: New Trilogy User Needs Help!!! Anyone??

I see that choice but mine did not change from doing that, I was in bed and only pressed the power off then selected off. But after I tried it again without changing to secondary it was my old settings, my secondary settings is set up so I can use the wand mouthpiece, and not another prescription, s...

Re: New Trilogy User Needs Help!!! Anyone??

Re: saturation C02 level's drop while trying to use

And last night was even better, I used it from 12:ish to 5:am and slept well, even had some dreams and I don't remember those for awhile now if I can just stay awake long enough to do some reading here, I'm determined to learn each and every setting available to me and how I can benefit from it.

Re: saturation C02 level's drop while trying to use

A small victory for now, my primary care dr. got my RR15 changed back until I'm able to see the Pulmoligist again, and I used it for a nap with success, my o2 did drop when I was falling asleep but hubby said right after I fell asleep my o2 went back up to 94ish and that's better than I've been for ...

Re: saturation C02 level's drop while trying to use

You need your DME provider or whoever is in charge of your trilogy to come out and adjust your rise time, inspiratory time and trigger. Those are the settings that will adjust how long you have to inhale and how quickly it will change over from inhalation to exhalation. Thanks for the help, do you ...

Re: saturation C02 level's drop while trying to use

The dr actually wrote RR15 on the orders so that's what the rt set it at, he's brand spanking new out if school so no telling why this didn't flag him as to high, and I started out clueless , but from the get go I've felt this was the culprit I've got another call into the ordering dr if I can just ...
