Nasal Pillows

I am using AirFit P10 nasal pillows for the last 5 months ever since I started CPAP. It worked very well and I was quite happy with that. However since last week I am having an issue. While on sleep (usually I sleep on side position) I noticed the pillows slightly come out of the nostrils and air is...

This mask seems to be good AirFit P10

However feeling some inflammation in the morning with this new mask. Anyone got any idea how to deal with this?

Got the program and it looks like there is lot of information recorded. But the problem is how interpret them. Various colours and ...

Measuring mask leak

I am a Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset user. Is it possible to know the amount of mask leak on a particular night? I thought the machine gives only the average leak for a period.

Re: New to CPAP

I am using a nasal mask and I am sure the air is coming out of the mask seal/cushion. Is there a nasal pillow mask, the tube can be disconnected from the mask? I don't think there is a pillow mask that disconnects and reconnects easily without a short hose. There are some nasal masks that don't hav...

Re: New to CPAP

rpq, is the mask you have the Mirage FX nasal mask? https://www.cpap.com/productpage/Resmed-Mirage-FX-Nasal-CPAP-Mask-with-Headgear.html That mask does not cost $200, and your insurance probably did not pay that much either. Anyway, if you can use a nasal mask, you could use nasal pillows. You real...

Re: New to CPAP

Is the air you are talking about from the mask seal or the air that the vent puts out? If from the seal try the liners or eye mask suggested above. If from the vent it may be bouncing off your pillow and the mask could help. The F10 FF mask has a connection at the mask to unhook. Check on https://w...

Re: New to CPAP

While I don't see the connection with humidity, you can try out different humidity settings to see what works best for you. Do you have the Climateline heated tube? If you do you it may be on auto but you can set it on manual and set the humidity setting separate from tube temperature. In the winte...

Re: New to CPAP

I am confused. This is a new mask bought at over $200. My CPAP technician say it is to do with the temperature of the humidified air.

New to CPAP

I have just started CPAP after a sleep study. Sleeps around 6-7 hrs per night with the machine now. The problem is when I wake up I find my eyes are bit burning and having the feeling of not adequate sleep. Any thoughts why is it? I thought it should be other way round with the machine. But the good...
