Re: Software is not for patients.
The DME said ... about getting the software ... difference between "taking control of your therapy" and "expecting people to do their goddamn jobs"... "experts" because they went to community college but won't even do their job... "they" wouldn't give me the reports so I don't honestly know my non-...

Re: Trying new Quattro FX tonight - any suggestions
I am going to try the new Quattro FX tonight ... I have been using the Quattro but would like to see how I go without a forehead support. After 10 days the Quattro built a bruise on my nose bridge. Tape and moving up / down to another pressure point helped only partially. So I am looking forward to...

Re: Cable for Resmed S9
I have read the info on the SD card but it only shows me how long the unit is in use per nite. I would like to know about apneas, leaks, etc. Dan, Are you maybe just looking at the S9's screen? I have ResScan installed on my PC, which downloads the SD card information and displays all kinds of deta...

Re: Why is it necessary to have a support team?
Good initiative and good thread! I get the impression that "Support Team" means different things to different people on various medical forums ... including the context on this thread. Initially I thought you meant family emotional support. To me good support means that the multidisciplinary and mul...

ResScan: evaluating symptoms &trends in detailed CPAP data
I am new to OSA. 20 days into CPAP, AHI is in the 10-20 range, still fighting nasal congestion before getting to the main objective. I am concerned by the physician’s quick evaluation of just the simple data norms; which technique assumes that the events are evenly spread. Given some experience in t...

Re: ResScan UnderReporting or SmartLink OverReporting or ?
It looks like the S8 AutoSet defines them as: Apnea - 75 % decrease in flow for a period of 10 seconds (simplifying the chart upthread) Hypopnea - 50 % decrease in flow for a period of 10 seconds DeVilbiss defines them thusly (again simplifying): Apnea - 90 % decrease in flow for a period of 10 sec...

Re: Some data occasionally goes “missing in action” in ResScan?
Twice in the past month, most of the data for one single night has gone “missing”. For example, last night’s data IS there, but only in the “detailed charts” panel. However, the “summary graphs”, and “statistics” panels show NO data, as though the machine wasn’t used at all. On Windows XP, they are...

Re: breathing and sleeping problems with S9 Autoset
Hello John, We seem to be at the same stage in home CPAP equipment and accumulated results. But you've said nothing about your lab sleep study dx and home PAP objectives. After a quick look at your screen dumps from ResScan: - I note a correlation between flow Pressure increases and Leakage - you ha...

Re: Questions for Encore Viewer and Encore Pro users
This thread has an interesting mix of sw savvy Respironics and ResMed users. One potential aspect that interests me: even if the raw data doesn't have the same digitized resolution in time and pressure, is it possible to transfer it from one hardware and sw and computer and operating system to anoth...
