New Resmes software questions

Post by dream-warriors » Sun Nov 08, 2009 9:11 pm

Hello,

First of all thanks to all that have helped me on my previous posts. I just received my my new Resmed software from Australia, and would like to get to know how to get the most out of it. I was able to download my card and get my charts fine, but I'm not sure what all the data and numbers mean.

Thanks, Greg

Dream-Warriors,

There is some fantastic information on how to read the Resmed reports on this site.
Rather than try to repeat it all here you can use the search function and see some informative threads.

One thing I found with the ResScan software using the card reader is that you only get three days of detailed data on the card.

Best of Luck,
Mark

I am not a Hindu or a god, just Mark from New Jersey. But the CPAP mask makes me look like Ganesha.

Greg, did you open the pdf of the Clinical Guide which is attached to the software? It's 57 pages long, and a nice reference.

And here's a link on how to download reports to the forum, if you want help:

I am very pleased with the software, and can't imagine being without it.

And here is a link to sleep apnea definitions: wiki/index.php/Category:CPAP_Definitions
