Resmed AirSense 10 Autoset with Heated Humidifier

Earlier I showed you what sleep report is, and sleep report sees when you turn the machine on, and then when you're done using it and you shut it off it automatically goes into sleep report. This is the home screen, if you press this, this is what it shows. Because it's the home screen at any point you can always go to your sleep report and view it. Now we are so used to our smartphones, we tend to press this and nothing actually happened, you still have to use the dial, what I want to talk to you about is my options and this is very critical for you.

When I turn this on right RAM type, now if you press you to see RAM time Auto, let me press that, it's new software that only Resman has come up with, but it knows when you're awake and when you're sleeping. When you're awake the machine will blow very softly, and then when you fall asleep it then begins his full therapy that the Machine ramps up, it goes up to where the doctor prescribed it to be.
You can actually change it right from auto, you can change it two minutes, 45 minutes, 40 or 30 prior to this machine, all CPAP machines, the ramp was always set by minutes. This is how the first came up with the auto, as far as I know now climate control, this is where it's using the heated tubing right and the Machine decides how much moisture you get now.
Like I said that some patients of mine will say what I don't care how smart this machine is, I'm still drying out us in like anything. What you do is come here the climate control, put it to manual and voila. You have this humidity level, what humidity level is the hot plate, this piece here, I can leave it open, you see in it the higher the number, you can increase it, you can increase the moisture level.
What happens is it eat this hot plate, the higher the number you heat the temperature the hot plate which heats the distilled water, that's in here right and then you get more moisture. You have eight settings, you can go as high as eight settings, and force a good starting point. If you say to yourself I'm feeling dry go higher, and then just lock it in now.
The next thing is tubing temperature if you feel the air is too cold for you to make the tubing temperature warmer. If you feel the edge too warm for you and there's a lot of people who feel that way make it cooler. That's all you have to do, it will do wonders for you now.
The next thing is I mean that smart stuff, now if I turn this on the machine will start automatically, you put a mask on and you take a couple of breaths, it comes on, you take the mask off in a few seconds, the machine shuts off all. It's such a good feature, the mask here means it can slightly affect the performance of the machine, you just choose.

If you're using nasal post choose nasal pillows, a full face mask, and nasal mask, and also can affect the data a little bit, run mass fit this one. If you turn this on, since that it's not connected to anything, the machine's going to blow strong, and what it's going to do is going to see if your current mask can maintain a good seal.
It's a check the performance of your mask, it's a very good feature to have run warm up, 99% of the people will not use this, but I'm going to, but I always teach every one of my patients, and I see over 1500 patients a year, and those who use this machine I'm always showing them this. If you feel dry, regardless of the fact that you're changing the humidity level, this is what you do, you press this.
If you turn this feature on, that hot plate right now in here is running, and the machine is not on, what it does is it pre-warms the water for you, a good 20 30 minutes before you go to bed, for example, if you go to bed at 10, turn this feature on start warm at 9:30 9:45 9:45 9:50, put the mask on, turn the machine on, and immediately you will get tons of moisture.
It's such a good feature to have 99% of the people don't use it, 99% of the people who have this machine don't even know they have such a good feature like this in this CPAP.
