While adding ambient humidity to a room appears to avoid running a CPAP tank dry, it would seem that the manufacturer should be designing the tank size to not run dry even with the lack of supplemental humidity added to a room.

................. I have not had a sleep study due to an upcoming operation. Long story. I can't do a sleep study until after I get my surgery. After I went to my Endocrinologist, he suggested I may have sleep apnea. Makes sense. Stop breathing. Body needs more O2 and makes more Hb. I can track tha...

Will the Wellue O2 ring work with my air sense 10? The Wellue O2Ring does not work with a CPAP machine. There is no linkage or communication between the CPAP or the ring. The O2Ring records data independent of what your CPAP records, but the data can be compared in the OSCAR software. Both have clo...

I have a Wellue O2Ring. I had gotten it when I suspected I had an apnea problem and my doctor agreed when he saw the data from it and scheduled a sleep study which subsequently got me onto CPAP therapy. This was over two years ago and I still wear the ring at night as a cross check of what my CPAP i...

Wasn't mentioned what CPAP machine was being used. Is it by chance a Philips Dream Station and if so were you aware of the recall?

This one or similar?

I have the Dream Station 2. When I got it I started out using the ramp 'feature'. It didn't bother me to use it, but I tried turning it off to see how it was without the ramp and I've left it off and the machine starts at the low prescribed pressure. If the ramp is bothering you (struggle to breathe...

My sister having a hard time navigating menus on display. Is there a secret to finger swiping? Light touch? Location on screen? Really struggling to access menus. I guess I would compare it to how one swipes the screen on a cell phone screen. A light touch either up or down This Youtube video kinda...

Another note.... the security PIN you mentioned. That is in the 'Device' tab in my machine on the last screen. The PIN can be set to 'NO' so that no security PIN should need to be entered. FWIW..... these are the settings on my DS2. Her sleep doc would have prescribed the settings. I would think Apr...

I went into the provider menu again. In my DS2 in the 'Settings', 'Therapy' tab there are 4 screens as noted by the dots on the right side (the number of dots on each tab denotes the number of screens on the tab) . Each screen is accessed by swiping up on the display screen. My third screen is for '...

Hey there, back this morning after taking a look at the DS2 and setting for 'Patient Access'> 'Patient Controls' and 'Patient Data'. The 'Patient Data' which includes AHI on the main screen can be disabled so it does not display. I did try this on my DS2 and the AHI is absent. The setting for 'Patie...

The AHI as well some other data should be shown when therapy is turned off or by swiping the touch screen with ones finger (I just did this to confirm the finger swipe does display the screen). It is similar to the screenshot from one of the DS2's documents below. I don't think this display can be l...

Just do not try to heat the water with this method in the CPAP tub. The Microwave will not like the metal heating plate on the tubs bottom. It didn't seem to bother my tub. ymmv This video below mirrors my experience when a wire tie from a bread wrapper snuck its way in with some food. The wire tie...
