New product to help prevent mask leaks called V-Com
I watched a youtube video by Lefty Lanky about this new device from SleepRes called V-Com.
It sounded interesting and is supposed to help prevent leaks and slow down the pressure surges.
Has anyone out there tried this product?
I would like to try it but can't find a source to deliver to Canada.

I caught this after seeing your profile and reading the warnings on their website:
Quote:V-Com™ has not been tested in adaptive servo ventilation and average volume-adjusted pressure support breathing circuits.
There are several warnings about its use with auto titrating models. It looks like it is for static pressure use.

I must have missed that part, oh well.
I sure hope it will work for other people.
Thanks Again.

It looks like just a calibrated orifice.

I got the V-Com a couple of days ago, based on LankyLefty's recommendation. I love it. So far it greatly reduced my aerophagia and my mouth breathing. It's been a real game changer for me - I will be using it from now on. My understanding is that it was developed by a pulmonologist sleep doctor. I'm in Canada and bought it via
Supplier #10 [DME Link Removed] but I believe they are sold out now. You might have some luck on Amazon. Not sure if it should be used with ASV though, I'd check on that if I were you.

Looking forward to more reviews.
Bought it today but will be delivered in 2 weeks.
Hope it will improve my aerophagia problem.

Just saw a YouTube from the lanky lefty and he said he doesn’t recommend v com with bilevel even though the company says you can.
Anyone know what’s the deal?
