Help with Fisher and Paykel Auto CPAP
I recently got the Fisher & Paykel auto cpap. I had been using and old model. This machine changes pressure with every breath!! I talked to the technician and he said this was the very same kind of machine I had before. I looked up some information and called him back. I told him it it seemed like there is a difference between auto cpap and just cpap. he says no?? He says constant pressure is constant pressure. This is a cpap just like any other. I do more research. I call him back. I tell him I learned that this machine is switchable between the two. He admits this is true, but insists the setting is on CPAP not AUTO. But I cry ... the output pressure is going up and down with every breath. If I turn it on without wearing the mask the pressure drops way down. If I cough or something it seems like it gets out of rhythm with my breathing for a moment or two. My old machine did nothing like this! HELP!

RE: Help with Fisher and Paykel Auto CPAP
welcome to the board ... which F&P machine are you using
you can find setup menu instructions section one and and setup manual section three ... just make sure you ask for the right one http://www.apneaboard.com/adjust-cpap-pr...tup-manual you have to find out what the machine set at and if set to start at lower pressure also if sensawake (Icon) is enabled. Icon video http://vimeo.com/20560260 most apap users here uses either S9 Autoset or Phillips Respironcis System One Auto both are easy to use and supported by free available software... resscan and sleepyhead
