literature request

Post by ronnell33 » Fri Mar 11, 2011 3:59 pm

I have been on cpap therapy for ten years. This has been a V.A. provided. I have recently moved back to Oregon and have not been able to get any real help or information from the V.A. here.
What I am requesting is information such as: how often and when should I be retested? How often should my cpap equipment be tested? My prescription is for 13cm/h2o, a manometer reading shows the actual pressure to be 10.5cm?h2o, Is this OK? There must be a manual or something that covers these kind of questions. My last conversation with my RT, even when I mentioned the difernce in pressure, she insisted that I must clean the humidifier every day.???
Can anyone help me with information source, as stated the V.A. isn't it!
