Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

Here are my results from last night after increasing minimum pressure to 8. I woke up at around 1:30 with problems exhaling (EPR set at 3). So I ticked down minimum pressure to 7 and then slept through to 5:30 am. No obstructive apneas but several central apneas. My AHI is pretty good though I feel ...

Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

Follow up question. I am using the Dreamwear full face mask. The Airsense 10 came with a setting of nasal mask. I changed it to full faced. I was supposed to get the F30i by resmed but it was on backorder. I'm guessing this was an error from A****. Thoughts?

Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

Had one of those nights where I just didn't feel very sleepy so I didn't sleep well. Took my mask off after 5 hours and then finaly went to sleep. I actually feel comfortable with the Dreamwear full face mask but last night was just one of those odd nights. Changed the minimum pressure to 8 and that...

Re: Really struggling feeling exhausted

My primary doc also diagnosed me with RLS but I still went to a sleep and lung center to get help on my sleeping issues. The doc working with me there says that RLS likely won't effect sleep unless it is bad enough to where you need to walk around during the night. My primary doc prescribed RLS drug...

Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

I just googled starting pressure vs. minimum pressure and can't see anything of help. I would think those things are the same. But they are not. What is the difference. BTW, I do think before I sleep tonite I'll ratchet the minimum pressure up another notch. Should I make starting and minimum the sa...

Maybe I missed something on the upload but the message I got when I tried to upload the screenshot was that it was too big.

Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

Great vid.... Many thanks for the responses. I notched up minimum and starting pressure up one after I took pics of all my default settings. Leaving EPR as is at the moment. It's currently set as 3. I'm turning ramp off (as it was) since I don't think that is going to impact things much.

Re: Airsense 10 ramp up question

The chart depicts what I was feeling--sorry that it is a bit blurry. There is a file size limit so I had to shrink it. From about 10:30 to 1:30 I feel like I didn't sleep at all. And pulled my Dreamwear full faced mask off a couple of times because it felt suffocating just when it seemed I was drift...

Airsense 10 ramp up question

New user, just got the Airsense 10 auto on Friday. Having trouble falling asleep. Feels like I'm suffocating when I'm on the verge of going to sleep. I'm thinking the pressure is inadequate. Doc has prescribe a range of 5-20...when I get to sleep I can sleep with virtually no events. Prior to that t...

Re: Ordered New Machine and Thank you

Yes I'll have the Airsense 10 on Friday and 2 of the larger providers locally don't have the F30i in stock but do have the Dreamwear equivalent which I'm told is very close in design to the F30i. The nameless DME does not have the Airsense 11 in stock yet so I won't be getting that. I'm looking forw...

Re: Ordered New Machine and Thank you

First time poster. I am completely new to CPAP. Awaiting an Airsense from that nameless company. The machine is in fact ready to send. It's the mask on backorder.....F30i.I just got off the phone to them and I'm trying to get them to send me the Airsense without the mask and I'll just buy it locally.
