[CPAP] New CPAP machine user guidance
#1
New CPAP machine user guidance
Hello everyone. I have been diagnosed with mild sleep apnea. 
We dont have good support here for Sleep apnea patients, so kind of relied on manufacturer settings of the device i purchased. I have to admit i am absolutely clueless about custom device settings at the moment. 
Got a Prisma 20A machine & a primsa aqua humidifier. So far operated the device 140 hrs. 
My therapy AHI readings are usually below 5/h. 
Recently, i have been hearing a clicking sound when the humidifier is connected to the CPAP machine and the only way to stop it is to disconnect the humidifier from machine. So any insight on how to make that go away would make my therapy much more comfortable 
Thank you for making me part of your community.

Hi Mbashir70,
Welcome to Apnea Board!

I am not familiar with your machine, but you may want to check all the seals in the humidifier. It could just be something isn't seated right, or has come loose.
