Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

Am I right in seeing that after switching to auto CPAP mode, that the typical pressure averaged around 10.4? No...it's not averaging 10.4. That 10.4 is what is called a 95% number and the definition of a 95/90 % number is AT OR BELOW that number for 95% of the time. People often don't understand or...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

[I'm guessing that since for now I'm sticking with my System One that I would send him either my Dream Works info or these OSCAR graphs to diagnose and then he could tell me any recommended changes? For the most part, doctors simply do not have the time or motivation (and because of that, the exper...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

then he could tell me any recommended changes? I took the advice of cpaptalk members. Two sleep doctors were giving me poor advice. This is a common story. Doctors don't have the time to dig into individual patients' details. It's sad that that is the case but I'm encouraged knowing that I at least...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

Oooooops forgot to post the graph with the suspected REM high-lighted. REM_perhaps.png Here is last night's graph. I wouldn't measure anything after 7:30am as I was awake in bed by then but trying to pretend be asleep LOL. I also attached a screen shot of my sleep app on my phone that measures my m...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

There appears to be a consensus here that very few "sleep" doctors actually pay any attention to the numbers other than compliance hours. After 10 years and 4 or 5 doctors, I have received much better advice here than I received from any doctor. Pugsy helped me when I was getting started and when I...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

Oooooops forgot to post the graph with the suspected REM high-lighted. REM_perhaps.png I am blown away by your ability to read that graph! Thank you so much for your insight. Good to hear that it seems like I'm getting restful sleep. I do feel the difference when I'm able to use the machine regular...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

In the clinical setup menu where you can change pressures there is also a "mode" selection and that is where you can change it to auto mode and at that time you then have a minimum and maximum pressure setting available. If you elect to try it...I suggest minimum at your current cpap fixed pressure...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

Last night's report looks pretty good. I see you are in fixed cpap mode. Any special reason for that mode? If sleeping good and feeling good there probably isn't any urgent need to change but if you are of a mind to experiment a bit then changing to auto/apap mode and letting the machine see if it ...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t158560/How-to-post-images-for-review.html I like to start with a typical detailed nightly report with just the basics and go from there. I don't really care for the overview graphs unless I am looking for a quick reference for hours of usage. OSCAR will give you a...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

Don't waste money on the bluetooth thing. All you get is the same stuff you get off the DreamMapper app which is obviously very limited data. You may have some trouble with your Mac due to security prompts. I don't know how to tell them to shut up on a Mac but I got the same prompt from Windows. I ...

Re: Philips System One 560P Keep or Upgrade?

As for the thought that "if this brand works for you don't change" ideas....sometimes newer or different is actually better and people might actually like the different brand and how it goes about doing its job. I did well on a Respironics machine for 2 or 3 years I guess it was and then I got a ch...

Hello! I've owned the System One for the last 6 years. Thanks for your time and consideration! Ryan - Denver welcome to the zoo! i'll leave to others to promote "the latest and greatest". that's not my concern. my concern IS that you have a machine that is 6 years old. that right there is tempting ...
