Just wanted to post an update and say I have finally acquired a Resmed machine (ASV) and getting much much better results , if you look at my previous posts you will see I never got good results with Phillips machines (which is all that the DME carried), at best I was getting AHI in the 5-10 range a...

Ha cool I was wondering what that essentials thing was about, what a meaningless name
Turned on plus and yes it says ahi is zero.
Will lower my epap and ps max to 10 to see if helps aerophagia and keeps ahi good.

So I took a few months of Cpap due to my aerophagia issues, I would say overall I slept better because of not waking bloated at 2am, but of course the sleep apnea didn't go away and still had so-so pretty resteless sleep Finally got A ResMed ASV yesterday and I have questions I used the default titr...

that bpm seems much to high for me?

Thanks Jas_williams, I get what you are saying, I think, but my prescription says Epap 6 to 9 (9 max), I agree that it might be better to let the machine decide how high to go, but I think they are starting me with a max of 9 because of the aerophagia issues I had been having with the ABAP machine w...

so the place I pick up the machine had set it all wrong : facepalm prescription is epap 6-9 with backup rate of 12, instead it was set to 6-6 with no backup, I could tell the lady there didn't know what she was doing. Anyway I now set it now to Press:9, epap+ : 9, epap-: 6, ps+:3, ps-:0, BPM:12, TI:...

Interesting about vs2, I think most of my snore events were those. I do also have a lot of CA events (43) :-/ I *think* the epap values were just reported wrong by Oscar, but I'll dbl check as the tech that was setting the machine seem she was struggling with this model - I felt like I could have he...

I was able to get the beta version source code (beta3) and build it and it now works !

Quick question, it shows a lot of snoring still, would a chin strap help with that (they provided me one), or using a Full face mask rather than the Eson2, or does it juts mean I need more pressure ?

it seems it's a known issue and a new beta might help, asking about that on the apnea board.

Thanks,
I have not disabled anything, and checked again the prefs and I don't see anything disabled, most likely the software juts can't parse my machine's data properly.

I'll try windows software when I have a chance.

Because of aerophagia and central apnea with my "regular" dreamstation ABAP, they now assigned me a new machine "Respironics dreamstation Bipap AutoSv" This: https://www.cpapdirect.com/cpap-machines/philips-respironics-dreamstation-bipap-autosv-machine-w-heated-humidifier?utm_medium=pla&utm_source=g...

I have had more and more occurrences of aerophagia, lowering the pressure and sleeping at an angle help a bit, but it happens unless I keep the pressure low, but that means worst AHI (~10 rather than ~5), also once it happens I'm so bloated I have to discontinue. As Im not able to use my CPAP much, ...

I had found good settings for me (14-11) and had been getting decent results (2 to 5 ahi daily with good sleep) .... However while I used to get aerophagia one in a while it's now turned to every single night. I sleep a few hours, then wake with very bad bloating, night is ruined and I don't use CPA...

So, last night I set my pressure to 12-13.5 , I'm using a narrower range because I noticed I get less leaks that way. At first I tried to use the F20, it' much more comfortable with the foam than it was with the silicon. I got good result, however I can't get it to not leak during the night ... I th...

Not sure I noticed a difference between 3 and 8 AHI, but CPAP makes me feel better than no CPAP for sure.

But obviously a lower AHI should be better for me.
