smart card

Post by haynow2b » Wed May 03, 2006 5:34 pm

Last week I began using a Respironics Bi-pap Pro-2 w/ Bi-flex & it seems to be working a lot better for me as w/ my old C-pap machine I couldn't tolerate the high volume of air on exhale. Although I feel more rested & am getting an avg. of 5-7 hours of sleep compared to 2 hours before, I still sometimes get to the point I feel I need a nap. I would like to know if the card that is in this machine can be used by me to find out what is going on @ night or is it like the therapist say's it has to be done by my pullmanary doc.
I wish I knew about this web site back in 2000 when I started this stuff! Thanks to all for all the info as I am finding it to be very helpful!

haynow2b, yes, with the Encore Pro software and the card reader for your smart card, you can see detailed overnight data from your BiPAP Pro 2.
