[CPAP] 30 day report
#1
30 day report
I took a home sleep study because at my last DOT physical, I was told to. The study came back positive. The price of the CPAP was a lot less than my insurance deductible so I just bought a machine online and after a week I can say that I have had nothing but success. BUT, I am having no luck figuring out how to print out a 30 day report to take to the doctor when I go back for my next physical. Any advice is appreciated.

You can download ResScan from this site. It has a report function in it.

Question 
RE: 30 day report
My RESMED machine did not come with an SD card. I go to their website to view my data, which is fine, but it will not give me a 30 day report.

You will need to buy an SD card. They are not expensive. Probably a 2gb would be fine.

You can use ResScan software or #SleepyHead to generate a 30 day report. Most doctors preferably use ResScan.

Why can't you take a screenshot of the data on the website?
If you can read your data on the site, then surely the doctor can as well?
I am NOT a doctor.  I try to help, but do not take what I say as medical advice.


Every journey, however large or small starts with the first step.

That's what I plan on doing. But I'm not entirely sure what is legal and what isn't.

It's your data isn't it?

RE: 30 day report
It may be easier to take your sd card to a DME in your area and have them to print out a 30 day compliance report on their letterhead. Most will do it for a small fee, whether you use them for supplies or not. The DME I use prints reports for established customers at no charge and sends a copy to their sleep doctor to use for proof of compliance for insurance. Be sure to call in and make arrangements in advance if you decide to go this route.
