Advantage of auto-BPAP over regular BPAP for UARS?
I recently posted about my intentions to purchase a Philips Respironics Dreamstation Auto BiPAP machine to treat my possible UARS. My thought was that I could just set it on auto and it would do its thing. However, Sleeprider made what seems like a great point: Since UARS is more subtle than OSA, perhaps the machine won't be able to automatically find the best pressures for me, and I'll have to manually titrate the pressure over time anyway?
If this is true, are there any advantages to having the PR DreamStation Auto BiPAP over the BiPAP Pro for treating UARS? If not, I'll probably just get the BiPAP Pro.
Does anyone have experience treating their UARS with an auto-BiPAP machine? If so, did it require setting the pressures manually?
