Just to clarify what I meant - Is the algorithm different on the Dreamstation auto at 6 compared to the dreamstation fixed ? I felt on the fixed dreamstation machine set at 2 exhale it seem a little more comfortable to breath on. On 2 on the auto I seem to exhale to much and feel as if I am not gett...

Thanks for all the replies, over 90 sounds a bit high for a night. Two nights ago it was about 6.1 AHI only for about 4 hours though. I think the sleep physician uses encore. I had a download yesterday. Is encore any good? I just trialling a dreamstation auto machine and they set the start pressure ...

Thanks

Hi all, Thanks Chicagogranny and Pugsy for the tips. I have lost weight so in the healthy weight range, and avoid coffee and caffeine after mid afternoon. I probably don't get enough exercise at desk at work etc. Well last night was better, I set the RAMP at 6 and exhale set at 2.It took about 1 hou...

Hi all, I have been trialing the dreamstation fixed and finding it takes along peroid before dosing of to sleep (up to 2 hours). Is that normal for starting on CPAP. When I do get to sleep I might get 3-4 hours straight and wake up and then take it off so I can get back to sleep is that normal? Mayb...

Just want to put the dreamstation further away from the bed I am curious about why you want to do this? In setting up any process, simpler is better.

Thanks for everyone's input so far. I went to the a Philips CPAP store this afternoon and they said they only sell 1.8m tubes and never used longer tubes and they didnt 't recommend longer and were concerned the machine may not give accurate results however they will email tech support and get back ...

Very light sleeper, I tended to wear earplugs to bed but now with CPAP it tends to amplify the vibration/sound louder when they are in.

Hi all, Just wondering how you stop the noise going from the CPAP machine, up the tube into the mask. When I put earplugs in you can hear the whiring of the motor, when take earplugs out its much better but still hear it. Its not the air noise of breathing in and out its an additional noise. Any tip...
