Help Broken BiPap

Post by TomBonus » Mon Oct 31, 2022 10:35 am

I don't know your financial situation but LSAT has a bilevel auto machine for sale.

Also exactly which BiPap have you been using? There are some very special bipaps/bilevel machines that it would be impossible to mimic the settings....like if your BiPap is an ASV or other special model used to treat central apnea.

My machine is a respironics BiPap, all the other writing is worn off. I have obstructive sleep apnea.

Look on the bottom for a REF or model number.

The S/T model is one of those specialty bilevel machines I was talking about.
What it can do the plain cpap/apap machines can't do and neither can the regular bilevel machines either....depending on all your settings.
