Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what setting I should set in the clinical menu for mask type? Available settings are:
Mirage
Ultra
Mir Full
Standard
Thanks,
Rob
Setting for Spirit Autoset
Non-Resmed mask = Standard
Full face mask = Mir Full
Nasal mask = Standard or Mirage Ultra
That setting is only for the **** ranking it uses in determining leak. So selecting the wrong mask would only impact that rating/ranking, it would still show you actual leak rate in L/s (liters per second).
The "Full" setting does has a special meaning over the others, when selected, it disables the AutoStart feature on the machine as that feature is incompatible with the anti-asphyxia valves found on most Full Face masks.

someday science will catch up to what I'm saying...
