APAP Reporting

Post by blink33 » Sat Sep 27, 2014 5:54 pm

Hello, I am new to the forum and to APAP (3 mos of use). I have been browsing through some of the topics and have noticed a few people talk about analyzing their reports. Is this something that I can obtain on my own directly from my machine, or is this something my doctor needs to run? I have a resmed S9 series machine. I don't see any further indication of exactly which model it is anywhere on the machine.

I went in to doctor for a 30 day follow up and they downloaded info from the card and printed a report, but I didn't get if from them. I was told my next check would be at the one year mark. I guess I am questioning the effectiveness and would just like to be able to monitor what is happening on my own. It seems like there are many members on this forum who have taken the time to become VERY familiar with this technology/science & the condition of OSA. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

S9 model names are all clearly stated up by the on/off button.
If you have one of the APAP models then the 2 choices would be Escape Auto or AutoSet.
The Escape Auto has very limited data available but the AutoSet has everything available.
If you have the AutoSet you can use SleepyHead and there are links in my signature line for SleepyHead.
