Question about numbers and the ramp up feature

Post by HelpMeBreath » Wed Mar 12, 2008 11:41 am

Does anyone know if the VPAP III starts gathering statistics while it is ramping up? My machine is set to ramp up over 45 minutes, which I think is probably too long, because I take ambien an hour before bed I am usually asleep within 10 minutes of hitting the pillow.

I'm pretty sure the data gathering begins as soon as you turn on your machine. 45 minutes sounds like a very long ramp time to me.

Thanks for refraining from telling me to just look at my chart and see what time starts compared to my bed time. I would have deleted this post if no one had replied to it. I agree, I think I can knock it down to 15 minutes.
