[Treatment] Dreamstation vs resmed... questions.
#1
Question 
Dreamstation vs resmed... questions.
Hi!

Recently purchased a resmed for her to replace my dreamstation... I've had only a couple of events with it in the last week and they are all central apneas...

Am I looking at a defective machine or is the therapy with a resmed just that much better??

Edit: The picture with a ton of events is the dreamstation. The other two are the resmed.

RE: Dreamstation vs resmed... questions.
That was my experience about 1 year ago.  Dreamstation around 22 events a night ResMed alway 1 or less several nights in a row of 0. Some people swear the dreamstation is better for them,  I just swear at it....

That is why so many of us here strongly recommend the ResMed over Philips, current events aside.

The ResMed can actually be that much better in event combat.
