Use AirCurve 10 ASV as backup machine?

Post by clownbell » Tue Jan 10, 2023 6:51 pm

When my wife passed away recently, she left behind a Resmed AirCurve 10 ASV machine. It has 1103 hours on it; since she slept about 10-12 hours per night, that makes it about 92-110 days of use.

I have uncomplicated OSA without significant CA events.

Question: can I use this as a backup machine? If so, how?

Yes... you can get close enough to make it work depending on your current machine settings.

I don't have a problem with centrals yet I used ASV for a couple of years just because I liked how it felt. It can be done.

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.
