DeVilbliss DV54 presure surging
My APAP is almost 3 years old and has began pressure surging, sometime pulsing out of sync with my breathing, sometime just high pressure.  I can unplug to reboot and solve the problem for a couple of days.
    Is there another solution?  Any advice much appreciated.

RE: DeVilbliss DV54 presure surging
I believe your machine is partially supported by OSCAR software.  Download it and use the attachment feature to post a screenshot of the daily page in OSCAR.  

If we can see some data, we may be able to help.

Thanks.  Apparently I need an additional data module to get data for a SD card.   This I don't have.  And in the Republic of Panama, no easy way to get.

Sorry, I'm not all that familiar with your machine.

Are you using the Auto or Cpap mode? With Auto mode, you would have a pressure range, say 7 minimum and 15 maximum. (Just an example)
You can change this to be more comfortable.

As far as pressure surges, it's hard to advise without seeing some data.

Order a Clinicians manual for your machine here, look in Section Three for your machine.

It may be more useful to think of a replacement machine in the near future.  One with the virtues of the DeVilbiss--APAP, good guarantee and dependability, reasonable price.
   Since DeVilbiss appears to be stopping, production, can you recommend a replacement?   Thanks

For a APAP, ResMed AutoSet hands down the best IMHO.
