[Diagnosis] What format and files to send SD files to Doctor?
#1
What format and files to send SD files to Doctor?
So, I've been using CPAP for nearly a month. I bought the equipment myself, so it wasn't set up to send the data to my doctor directly.

It's a resmed, so it's also in myair, but giving clinician access doesn't seem simple. So I tried sending the sd files to my doctor, specifically:
  • SETTINGS folder
  • Identification.crc
  • Identification.tgt
  • STR.edf
Although the doc is out, the secretary let me know that that's not usually how the files look like when they get them from the DMEs.

So I was wondering, anyone know how the data clinicians receive usually look like? 
And how I can convert the Resmed SD card to that?
Just want to make sure the doc doesn't have trouble opening them, as my driving license depends on compliance

to make it easier, put the sd card in your computer. copy the entire card contents and paste it into a new folder on your computer. copy the contents of the new folder into a new sd card. mail the new card to the doctor and ask them to return it to you.

Some individuals create a zipped copy of all of the files on the SD card and forward them in the compressed mode. Others just copy their cards to another SD card and send that. And, still others send the data to the DMEs and ask them to forward the data to the doctor, provided they have a compatible AirView

Ask the nurse to ask the respiratory tech on call if she can’t be of further assistance. Most DMEs forward the processed files seamlessly to the Doctor over ResMed’’s professional system, AirView system.
