NEW AirCurve 10 ASV

Hi Sleeprider,

I just got the the latest version of Oscar.  Should I setup a new profile or can I use my old one? I meet with my doctor next week from the VA.  I'm 100 % compliance.  Can I merge both reading PR and Resmed together ?

Your existing profile can accommodate the new machine. It's up to you if you would rather keep the ASV separate or combine it with the previous data.

RE: NEW AirCurve 10 ASV
My take is you might want a slight amount of PS Min over the current 0. This maybe can afford you to move EPAP Min down, swapping the numbers around just a bit. It might address the UA and Hypopnea events better or different. Still it comes down to the better feel goal.

Secondarily is watch the occasional leaks that get near 24. If it's just an occasional blown seal that hits the 99.5% column in your left panel stats, you'll be fine. But when they make the 95% or median go up, then your really need to pay attention and act. As it's showing here, the 95% at 19.x needs watching. If ASV encounters lots of leaks, it's going to increase to Max IPAP, wake you, and blow therapy off track.
