No. Some manufacturer's equipment works better for some and then other manufacturer's equipment works better for others.
Some have started with ResMed and switched to Respironics and vice-versa.
Due to patents and copyrights, the manufacturers have to use different "algorithms" (the way they write the programs for the machines) and some machines' programs MAY treat people differently.
