Re: project progress reports updates

What would this cost? I do not see a lot of complexity / irritation of just pulling the SD card out and plugging it into my computer to get the data.

value = benefit/cost ... I do not see benefit being very large so cost would have to be quite small to be any value to me.

Newbie question ResMed Auto S9

I am about 20 days in using the new APAP.. The pressures are set fairly low since the sleep studied do not indicate the need for high pressures. Looking at the data using the ResMed software the machine is controlling the events fine with just a couple per hour max now. However, the data is also sho...

Re: Traveling with APAP - Suggestions (TIP)

The overhead bins in the aircraft. Just having the machine in its case absorbs this stuff. Then you have a very unpleasant surprise when you take the 1st inhale at night. It takes a lot of effort to get this smell out. Bot while flying Delta airlines.

Traveling with APAP - Suggestions (TIP)

Just a FYI. I am not sure if I am the only one with this issue but the last several times I took my APAP on a flight the air freshener that you really do not notices really contaminates the hose. Bad enough where it takes quite a bit a rinsing and airing it out. Now I always place the hose and mask ...

Re: How do you 'influence' the doctor prescription

I also just told my primary doctor the exact machine to get. She had no problems writing the script... Here in Utah if it is just a generic script you get the cheapest CPAP they can find. But if the script is written to the exact make,model, etc that is what you get...

Re: Done. Finished. I GIVE UP!

I am not sure if you need the full face mask but if you can get away without one the resmed airfit 10 finally did the trick for me. The gel mask would blister my skin even at the loosest fit. The airfit 10 fits comfortably in my nose without causing any sores. It is very light weight which allows be...

Newbie.. Take 2

Some history. About 5 years ago I had a sleep study that placed me with mild to moderate apnea. They placed me on CPAP with low settings 6 cmH20.. With this machine I never really got used to using this and just stopped using it. Fast forward to today... Symptoms that I was having.. Severe snoring, ...

Re: Resmed S9 Software - Where can I get it?

Hello, I just located this site and am interested in locating the RESMED S9 Autoset software. I am not sure why they just do not provide it when you purchase the machine. Any help would be appreciated. Also, has anyone used the add on oximeter that is available for this unit. Not only do I have the ...
