Aircurve10 ST - donnadudu - 05-20-2015

Hi,
Does anyone have a Aircurve10 ST. I want to know if there are separately adjustable EPAP min/max and PS min/max settings. Also want to know their min/max values and if these values are controlled by an algorithm such that the user doesn't have complete control of the values, If I set EPAPs then the available PS limits change due to an algorithm.

Thanks

The Aircurve10 ST is a fixed level Bilevel device. EPAP min/max are terms used for Auto machines. The ST has a timed backup rate that switches to IPAP if the patient doesn't initiate IPAP within a set time.

You set IPAP and EPAP pressures; and PS = IPAP - EPAP.

Your sidebar says you are on an ASV -- that's a different animal.
