Re: Evora Full Face masks

I did not find any mask leaks, but the air being exhausted through the mask vent holes is a lot. I think that is good but my ResMed machin does not like it.

Evora Full Face masks

My questions are has anyone else used the Evora FFM with a ResMed AirCurve V10 Auto and what does your report show for leakage. I had high leakage (25 to 70 CmH2O). ResMed AirCurves consider above 25 CmH2O leakage high. I was getting 20 to 40 CmH2O leakage with a DreamWear nasal mask . For informati...

Aircurve V 10 auto something typed on screen

I some times get a full display of text when shutting the machine off. It disappears before I can focus and read it. It disappears before I can get a picture of it. Is there a way to retrieve what it is saying? The machine just started this about 8 months ago. My machine is 5 years old and seems to ...

Re: Resmed Airsense 10 has stopped transmitting. Any Advice?

I suspect the AirCurve 10 transmits and receives on the 3G cell phone systyem. Since they are taking the 3G cell service out in the US a lot of cell signal elecrtonics is not fully working. I have lost a good 3G cell phone signal in our area, now it is marginal and sometimes too weak for transmittin...

Re: Aircurve V10 auto screen

The picture was a great idea!!
Using the the machine call it what you want nightly therapy what ever. The message or warning has not come back for three days. I was wondering how long the air pump lasts.

Thanks all

Re: Resmed Airsense 10 has stopped transmitting. Any Advice?

IThe signal strength bars do not mean your unit can transmit data. By the manual gray means your unit is not transmitting or is not being accepted by the cell phone signal provider.The bars lightup on AT&T(GSM) or Verizon (CDMA)cell signals. I only get Verizon signals where I live, even though signa...

Aircurve V10 auto screen

I keep getting a mesage or warning on the screen after using the machine. The text is so small, glasses are needed to read it plus the message is long and fills the screen. The message comes up and goes away before I can read it. Is there a way to find out what it is? Thanks for the help in advance....

Re: AHI of 52.67 on APAP (Airsense 11)

I have a little idea of what you are going through. I have AFIB and sleep apnea also. They think sleep apnea is what caused my AFIB. I had heart ablation surgery 3 years ago for the AFIB, the surgent said my heart was worse than they thought. I am not a candidate for a pacemaker because I would be t...

Re: Nasal congestion

I understand, I have had the nasal surgery, RF turbinate treatments twice, been through all the meds listed in this forum. My nose plugs totally up, because of swelling caused by allergies. Only Afrin helped. There is a new treatment that can be done in an ENTs office that burns the nerves that make...

Re: Problems to sleep with my Resmed N30 i mask

I find that the N30i (under the nose) does not make the bridge of my nose sore like the N30. I am not sure why but most of the nasal masks settings specify the pillow setting ,not obvious in most of the instructions. But I notice when my allergies are flared up(which is most of the time) it is a lit...

Re: airCurve 10 operation

Thanks to all that replied!!
What started all these questions is, I have been on CPAP for almost two years but in the last two months I have been woken up twice gasping for air with very rapid short breathing.

Thanks

airCurve 10 operation

Should my AirCurve 10 V auto pump a lot of air if I stop breathing? I thought that was the CPAP purpose. I can hold my breath for 40 seconds and the machine does not increase how much air is being blown into mask. Is there a problem with the machine or doctors settings?

Thanks

N30i cleaning

My N30i came sealed in the ResMed bag. There were no instructions with it. I used it for about a week, just wiping the cushion off each day. I figured out how to disassemble it and cleaned it. The frames with their accordion design are very hard to get the water droplets out of. I ended up using a v...

Re: Apnea or Afib

First THANKS to ALL who have replied. I had severe sleep apnea over 60 events per hour, as tested at two different hospital sleep studies a couple of years apart. Yes I do have AFIB along with bad environmental allergies. CPAP with FFMs got it down to between 10 and 30 events per hour. Using nasal m...
