Pugsy's Pointers...SleepyHead/OSCAR Tutorial and TX Hints

[Pugsy]

I am in the process of getting a new machine which is supported by Sleepyhead. I have been using EncorePro/Basic with my Current M-Series Auto BiPAP that I have had for 6yrs.

I am looking into possibly getting a O2 sensor and looking to see what is compatible. One that I found I thought was interesting which would allow me to use my phone to collect the data. I still don't know if it has an export mode yet, but I'm curious if anyone has looked at it as a possible supported device

It would be better if you had your own thread in the main body of the forum if you want to discuss this pulse oximeter.
Most of the forum members don't bother with this SH tutorial thread so you are missing quite an audience who might be able to help you better.
I have no idea if the pulse ox you found above will do any overnight recording or how to get the data that it might record (if it records any data).

Just hoping Sleepyhead for the AS10 will be ready soon.
My S9 Autoset failed to write data to the card,
so I have set the gears in motion to get my AS10 Autoset for Her.

It's already working in the code, I just need more data to get it working swell

Edit: "working", as in, importing and showing the graphs and pressure settings, but the new fancy stuff (like CSR and RERA) as well as the other settings (Like EPR, humidifier, etc..) need adding in..

I am currently using the ResScan 5.1 software but would really like to give Sleepyhead a try when you get it compatible with the A10. Please keep us posted of the progress.

I'm a newbie & I appreciate all the information about SleepyHead.
I was able to download my data from my SD card & view the data.
I appreciate it!

Are there any suggested pulseoximetry models that work particularly well with Sleepyhead?

I think SleepyHead lists which models are compatible.
Pretty much all the CMS overnight recording models except maybe the blue tooth and I can't swear to that.
I don't do the pulse ox thing so I haven't kept up with which models work or not.
I did use the CMS 50 D Plus a couple of times and it worked fine but it seems most people aren't happy with that basic model and want fancier so I really haven't followed those other models.

Ah, I didn't realize there was a listing I will go looking for that. Thank you.

Thank you for this! I was just about to ask if SleepyHead was available for my Autoset For Her!

That was three months ago. You will have better luck today.

hi. Thank you for all the SH information. I am going to be downloading the software but I would like to know if the data on my machine will be erased when I download it onto the program. In Ontario we are followed annually by a company in order to be reimbursed by OHIP. Thanks for your help.

Hi yarnknit,

Your not getting your answers here , you'll get much better responses in the main forum under the 'Topics' section. There are 100+ machines, we don't know what yours is. May not be data capable. Sleepyhead does not erase data to my knowledge. Registering and filling out your profile will enable us to answer to 'your' equipment questions. OHIP means nothing to most of the USA members here. Don't give up, you'll get answers once you get the hang of where and how to post.

my machine is Philips Respironics REMstar Pro C-Flex+ System One. I have a MAC and IPAD. Is Sleepyhead compatible with a MAC or is there a Respironics program? Thanks.

?? So load the current SH version and provide feedback to the author so he can improve it.

I totally agree with you on EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SPECIFIED HERE NYOUR HELPFUL POINTERS WERE CERTAINLY HELPFUL TO ME.
