DreamStation BIPAP ASV Report Errors

[mmannari99]

First, thanks to all the folks who support this forum and the Oscar software. Also, my profile is outdated, I have changed from a ResMed to a Respironics, but I have not yet figured out how to change my profile.

I just downloaded the Oscar software for my (new) Respironics DreamStation BIPAP ASV. I downloaded 1 days worth (my first day with this "replacement" machine) of SD card data and generated a report. Oscar recognizes my machine as a Dreamstation BIPAP AutoSV, but it also lists it as "Advanced (900X110)". The REF # on the back of the machine is actually "DSX900S11", not sure if this minor model number discrepancy is important to my problem or not. It does report the SN correctly.  

My problem is the "Daily" report shows all zeros for, among other things, Event Flags and AHI . It does show data graphs for some stuff like Flow Rate and Mask Pressure. It also shows "Plots Disabled" for most of the graphs in the "Daily" report. It does show the correct usage hours. It also shows incorrect max pressure of 15.2, where the actual max pressure should be 9. I did make a change to the Therapy sessions in the morning after I used the machine and before I transferred the SD card data into Oscar.


So, I am extremely grateful for you software folks to be working on the software for my machine. I am hoping when you get time you can look into my problem. Perhaps it is a data format mismatch issue ?


I've attached a screenshot of part of the Daily report.
Thank You.

I'll try to help you with a few things.1st: Click on F10 to get rid of the right sidebar. 2nd: Click on the black triangle by the date to hide the calendar.    
These are of no use.  Then go down the right bottom where you see event flags, click on all the red charts to bring them green. To update your

profile, upper right corner, click user cp, go on edit profile, go to required field, do your changes, go down the page to update profile.  

Hope that helps a bit!    

ps: When it's all 000 it's supposed to be good!

There is limited data on Oscar, I think the old beta sleepyhead may be the same, but worth a try.

Normally the charts are okay. But they may not be. You would need a Philips program that your doctor would have. Can you post your settings. Your chart seem very stable. Min 4 max 7. I would double check that you have CA. It may have resolved. The machine seems to be treating flow limitations towards hypopnea

For your profile edit:

go to UserCP at the top right

find “Your Profile” and click Edit Profile

edit whatever’s needed

save by clicking Update Profile

go get a coffee for a job well done

G'day mmannari99. Welcome to Apnea Board.

There are some known issues with the Philips Respironics ASV machine in both SleepyHead and Oscar. You might want to cross-check your results using Philips Encore Pro software which is available on our Private Files and Links forum.

The best way to organise your charts for review is shown in the wiki article here: http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php...ganization

Thanks for all the advice.

Hello DeepBrreather,

Thanks for your help. I have downloaded and attempted to install EncorePro2. I did have to download MS Net Frameworks. I accepted the license agreement. I had to choose "Advanced" install, and am stuck getting past the database server install. Below are screenshot errors I get.

I tried just installing the client software, "EncorePro2", option 2, it then gives me the default  location of the database server, but then I get "Failed to connect to given server". 

So, I assumed I need to install a database first. I chose to install the 1st optio n "Database", it asks me to select the database server location, but I can't enter anything into the field and don't know what to enter anyway, and if I then fill out either of the authentication methods, and hit Next I get "Server does not exist or does not contain an EncorePro 2 database.

Can you help determine what I'm doing wrong? Maybe I need to install SQL Server on my PC?

Attached are screenshots.

Thanks,
Mark

Sorry, I did not include the screenshots on the last post. Lets see if I can attach them in this one.

You need to install Microsoft Sql server and follow the install instructions to setup security and stuff it will work with the free version

Turn off OptiStart. OSCAR will then give a full report, though pressures will be off.
