I'm flying to Perth tomorrow morning and as I now have a Respironics 560 APAP and a 760 BiPAP auto I now have a back up and travel machine. The 560 is all set up in it's own bag complete with power supply, mask and tubing. I'm not taking the humidifier as I haven't used it for a while now. There is a heat moisture exchanger for the Z1 in the bag if I need it.
I haven't changed the 560s settings since I started using the BiPAP regularly and am hoping it will work for me like it did in the past. I expect my RERAs will rise as I got the BiPAP to solve just that problem but then again I am on vacation. It will be interesting to see how my body responds to no pressure support.

Re: Temporarily Going Back to APAP from BiPAP
Why would you want to do this type of experimenting when you are away from home and away from the BiPAP?Holden4th wrote:I got the BiPAP to solve just that problem but then again I am on vacation. It will be interesting to see how my body responds to no pressure support.
Why not at home during a weekend with the BiPAP available if you have problems with the APAP?
