On paper you look pretty good. That little bit of large leak isn't enough to worry about as long as it didn't wake you up. I don't know if more minimum will help your sleep quality or not but might be worth trying. I did try a higher pressure but I'm swallowing a lot of air, even whilst awake and a...

SleepyHead reporting significant leaks in the "time over red line" statistic and the machine not reporting significant leaks...that's because SH is using the ResMed red line threshold of 24 L/min and that threshold doesn't work for a Respironics machine. Change it or just turn it off. Preferences/C...

Could have REALLY used it last night too as I woke up with nose freeze about 2am

Run your hose under the bedclothes, that will take the edge off the chill

Thanks Jas, I do do that but I move constantly and it just works it's way out again.

Ok so I've pretty much given up with the heated hose now unfortunately: Tried it with the Humidifier settings bumped up to 2 and the heating settings at 1 and then 2. This does indeed keep the humidifier running as we suspected. Unfortunately it means the water in the reservoir (filled to max) runs ...

Thanks Chris and Pugsy

I think you're right.

I'm gonna bump it up to at least x2 on the humidifier and x2 on the hose and see how that gets on.

I have the Philips Respironics Dreamstaion with Humidifer. I was getting some rainout (occasionally) so I bought the heated hose and used it for the first time last night. I set the hose to 1x heat and left my humidification settings at 1x (my normal setting). I woke up at around 2am with a dry thro...

I know what you mean but I've been on CPAP for 10 years, it's just that I've changed sleep clinic and machine so it's new and I know it'll take some adjustment.

I really appreciate the advice, thanks again.

Thanks Pugsy for great advice. I'll get on with my homework

It was my first full night with the machine and I felt it didn't go too badly. Hopefully I'll adjust even more as time goes on.

The only thing I'd suggest about your screenshot itself, in the future, if you have a short session like that at the start (playing with the machine, or something), and a lot of whitespace, just turn off that short session over at the bottom of the left panel. No need to repost the screenshot thoug...

So I've been on CPAP for 10 years with an initial diagnosis of OSA. Changed sleep clinics and have been given a Philips Respironics Dreamstation. My untreated AHI score is 33 (had a home test 3 weeks ago). This is my first night of use with my replacement machine so I'm after some feedback regarding...

Does anyone here know the behavior of a Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset reagrding why it is increasing air pressure on me while I am awake and breathing normally? I masked up and was reading on my phone and over a span of 15 minutes that I could feel the pressure increasing slowly. I start out at 9 and ...

Thanks Pugsy

I think that's what I'll have to do and hope the rest takes care of itself as I lose more weight.

I think the EPR from this new APAP machine is helping with the aerophagia to a adegree so that's a positive.

Hi Everyone, As I've posted previously I've been disagnosed for 10 years with OSA. Weight has fluctated over the years and my fixed pressure has along with it (12-17.5 cmH20) self adjusted. My therapy has never been 100% effective but it was enough to get by with CPAP. I'm in the process of losing w...

Thanks for the reply and advice. I think you're right. I've decided against buying the module. I've spoken to my GP's practice about changing the provider / service that delivers my care, and even though it means a 2hr drive each way, I'll be so happy if I can as the one I have now is no support at ...
