ResScan vs. SleepyHead - pros & cons? - SuperSleeper - 02-26-2012 [parts of this thread were copied from our old forum] For those of you who have used both the ResScan and SleepyHead CPAP data-reporting software programs, can you briefly describe the pros and cons of each? RE: ResScan vs. SleepyHead - pros & cons? - SuperSleeper - 02-26-2012 zonk Wrote:To use both software one have to be an S9 user. I have only used ResScan and don,t find the need to use SH. I think SH might be more useful to PRS1 users as the software is free and more informative than Encore viewer PRO or Onkar and may be the Icon and IntelliPAP as well.

I find that ResScan is a little easier to use but then I started with ResScan and tried Sleepy Head. Sleepy Head charts the mask pressure and I don't think that ResScan does. Mask Pressure is important if you're looking at your leak data. ResScan allows you to email a report which is a feature that SH does not have. I have access to a color laser printer at work which I prefer to use for the report.

I'm assuming most people on this forum are already familiar with what the ResScan software is capable of doing so I'll focus more on what capabilities Sleepyhead has and probably the easiest way to do that is to show you some of my graphs.

VERY nice. Thanks everyone for the input and thanks b360155 for posting these great pics.

The picture below shows a daily detail graph and I have hit the events tab on the left and it lists my AH events. If you click on the event, in this case I clicked on OA event 001, the top graph remains on the same scale but highlights an area around that event. All of the remaining graphs below the Event Flags graph zoom into a smaller time frame window (that you can adjust with the view slider in the lower left), with the event time centered. Note the difference between the time scale below the top graph and the ones below it. This allows you to easily see what was going on immediately before and after the event. Again, there are more graphs available than what is pictured here if you were to scroll down the page. With ResScan, you can perform a similar task but it is much more cumbersome to perform. This navigation tool works very quickly and easily.
