Remote counselling from CPAP machine data?

Post by OntarioKevin » Fri Apr 08, 2011 1:55 pm

Does anyone know of an a la carte service that gives you counselling if you give them the data from the SD card in the back of your CPAP machine?

I know the card is supposed to be sent to your licensed therapist, but the only one I ever saw really has no interest in ongoing titration (especially if it's not with his high-cost government issue machine).

This seems exactly like the kind of thing someone could do remotely over the Internet. A great therapist could service CPAP users globally and help them titrate.

Anyone ever heard of this?

Yes, we've heard of this: Us. Here we are, waiting to counsel you. This as close as you're going to get to anyone helping you, short of you finding a damn good doctor who is better than 99% of the ones we've met.
