Hello all, I recently moved to Frankfurt and I'm looking to redo my sleep test. The previous one was done poorly at a public hospital, so while it was free, it didn't give accurate data. I found this list: https://doclandmed.com/en/germany/Frankfurt/ent-diseases-otolaryngology/sleep-apnea But it's q...

My Airfit P10 nose pillows slip off
Hello everyone I have a Resmed S9 and Airfit P10 and use an ergonomic pillow that has a 'valley' to help stabilize my head. At some point at night I toss and turn and the nose pillows get loose.

Re: Issues with noise from exhaust vents: Resmed S9 + Airfit P10
Thank you for your reply @Pugsy If you are having a lot of awake/arousal related centrals then we would advise trying to figure out what is causing the arousal and fix that. I'm not really sure what other factors could contribute to waking up breathless with heart racing. I've changed my screen habi...

Re: 15 days with ResMed AutoSense CPAP: Seeking Advice on Mouthbreathing
Re: mouth breathing:
I came across tutorials and videos about taping your mouth closed. I've been using medical tape and it's helped a great deal. I ordered some transparent tape marketed for mouthbreathing sleeping.

Re: Issues with noise from exhaust vents: Resmed S9 + Airfit P10
@palerider my understanding is that this is a community intended for education and mutual uplift. I am a newbie and I had thought that below 5 is acceptable. What is a number that, in your opinion, I should strive for? What additional steps should I take that I haven't already?
