Re: Don't have perscription but want to use CPAP

There are machines for sale all the time on the forum... the thing is that you want an Apap (which normally can run in Cpap mode anyway, tho' not the other way around), plus one that gives data - not just compliance, but the different features you'll want to follow and see how you're doing and what...

Re: Suggest a mask based on this issue with the mirage quatro

I'm able to make the mirage quattro work with the forehead adjustment smashed all the way down... I must have a weird shaped face. Other than the nose piece occasionally leaking into my eyes, especially when my face gets oily I really like this mask... also it's a large and if it were any bigger it...

Re: What about colds?

[/quote] You might be surprised to find that sometimes the machine can be helpful -- some of us have found that turning up heat and humidification on the machine during a cold helps relieve nasal symptoms. With the worst colds I've had since starting cpap there are usually one or two nights where th...

Anyone that could help me out or point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. Than...

Re: Am I leaking from my mask?

Fellow cpap users, I use the resmed mirage liberty full face mask with small nasal pillows. My machine is remstar m series pro. I don't feel any leakage from the mask expect for the air vents on the mask. My leakage on my machine says 90.2 L/min. My AHI is 1.9. My pressure is 13cm. Can anyone tell ...

Re: PR System One 760 and Sleepyhead/Encore

I own a PR S1 BiPap Auto model 760. It will work just fine with SleepyHead. I don't know which version of Encore Viewer you are talking about but the old version is not compatible with the 60 series machines.

PR System One 760 and Sleepyhead/Encore

My doctor has prescribed a bipap for me because he doesn't think my cpap is working as well as I need. My medical equipment provider is recommending the Phillips System One 760ST bipap. I want to get either the Encore Viewer or Sleepyhead software. My understanding is that Phillips has "upgraded" th...
