Been recommended a BiPap instead of APAP-Why do I need a prescription to buy??

RE: Been recommended a BiPap instead of APAP-Why do I need a prescription to buy??
My opinion on the settings, ask for full default from the supplier. Suggest to them you'll do a self Titration at home. Then you can put whatever you need.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.

Andy, my recommendation for you based on previous graphs is
Mode: Vauto
EPAP min: 8.0
IPAP max 16.0
PS 4.0

These settings encompass the range seen in this graph with a higher PS, and I'm certain you will start out with good results that we can then optimize.
