This is wierd... I have a Respironics Bipap Auto, but am running it in straight Bipap mode because I seem to get the best results this way. I am using the Swift Nasal Pillows Mask. I have been on Bipap for 3 months and am beginning to see the benefits slipping away...even though I am getting between...

I have been on compliant BiPap since June 9. I have amachine and mask that I like. I have gotten accustomed to the treatment and I am feeling about 80 - 90% better. I still have some good days and bad days. I am not very tired during the day and I rarely feel the need for a nap. I sometimes get a li...

had a similar thing happen (though not with my xPAP on) yesterday morning... I woke up about 5:40 (I get up at 6), and figured, hell, 20 minutes is 20 minutes and went back to sleep... BIG MISTAKE. I must've been in REAL DEEP sleep when the alarm went off 20 minutes later because oh my god did I fe...

I know this topic has been discussed before. I just thought I'd give my own experience. 2 times in the last week I have been awakened at around 4:30 or 5am (After about 5 1/2 hours of good Bipap sleep) and I just lie there with my mask on for the next 40 minutes or so trying to go back to sleep. Not...

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Setting Min EPAP of 8 tonight and see if I can't bring those hypos down.

Will reply back tomorrow.

Just had my 3rd night on the BiPap Auto since switching from the BiPap Pro 2. I have a few questions and thought I would post my most recent Encore Pro FUll Details report so that you can see the data I am referencing. http://filecities.com/files/567/SAB%20ABPAP%20Report.pdf As you can see from the ...

Moogy, what biflex level do you recommend to start?

haha, OK, it's in the mail...just send me $1200. (I knew I was asking for it with that question). Moogy, I have never used the ramp feature. Since the pressure of 12 isn't all that high, I welcome it as IPAP much lower makes me feel like I can't get enough air. I am going to try those settings tonig...

I just received my new Resp. Bipap Auto in the mail today and am looking for some advice on settings. I am changing(upgrading) from a Bipap Pro 2. My success with the standard BiPap mode has been good. My pressure is 8/12 and my AHI hovers around 4. However, when you really analyze the Encore Pro da...

Thanks everyone for your advice. I have decided to keep the Auto when it arrives next week. Best regards,

Scott

Due to my recent loss of job and becoming self-employed, I am giving up COBRA and changing insurance coverage. As a result, I am having to return my beloved BiPap Pro 2 to the DME and am purchasing a new machine outright. Here's my quandry... I looked at cpap.com the other day and saw that the Respi...

Does anyone know if this "settling" feature mentioned 2 posts up is available on the Respironics machines, or just the Resmed? The reason I ask is because my events are all inflated because they are occuring mostly when I am awake and being included in the indexes. It is obvious when looking at the ...
