Re: Do asv machines eliminate centrals?
I'm far from and expert only been on therapy for the past 6 weeks...... I was diagnosed with severe complex apnea and perscribed an ASV machine. I have seen an AHI score of .9-2.6 on my machine down from an average of 60 combined without, so it would seem it seems to be doing the job. Haven't felt t...

Re: New auto-SV user checking in
I can totally see how the numbers could be different at home. After 3 night there over 4 weeks, I was beginning to feel at home! Hell they had the temps all screwed up every time I was there! I woke up so damn hot and I knew it was going to be a problem when I walked into the door, felt the heat, an...

Re: New auto-SV user checking in
Thank you for the reply and your recommendations! RT set up the machine on Doc's prescription. I don't know exactly what titrated is exactly? Is that where they play with the pressures throughout the night and get it all dialed in? If so, then yes I believe they did that. I got two 10 hour nights on...

Re: CPAP algorithm "recoil" mode idea
I was reading the destructions this afternoon for my machine and immediately thought of the "flex" function. Adjusted mine today to 3 after trying the different settings and looking forward to being to empty my lungs for a smoother transition!

Re: New auto-SV user checking in
Good morning to all! Made it through the entire night with the mask on!!! One time about 4 hours in, the pressure woke me up where I could hear and feel a leak to the sides of my nose. I took the time to use the bathroom and snug the straps a bit. Now it felt a bit too snug, but wanted to try again....

Re: New auto-SV user checking in
Thank you all for the kind words! Looking over the data and I see Friday night's mask pressure spike in 4 breaths following a few timed breaths over about 40 secs time. Obviously it woke me up as the mask pressure shows 0 for a few mins cause I remember taking it off and used the bathroom. Then it h...

New auto-SV user checking in
First post, however I have been reading here the past month due to the poor info supplied my doctor. I met with him one time and have pretty much been on my own ever since because the techs can't tell me anything and have had to practically demand copies of my studies......Obviously I don't know how...
