[Equipment] Any experiences with Ventmed VM8 or other Ventmed devices?
#1
Any experiences with Ventmed VM8 or other Ventmed devices?
I am (almost) planning to get a Ventmed VM8 BiPAP with CPAP, Auto, S, T, ST, Auto S, and APCV modes. 

Are there any members here who can give me any information on this machine, especially on experience with the APCV mode (Adaptive Pressure Control Ventilation - seems to be ASV)?

@ OSCAR moderators:
Is there any chance the Ventmed devices might be supported by OSCAR in the future? Have you seen any of the data yet?

At a price of US$590 (online source) the Ventmed VM8 is a tiny tiny fraction of the cost of the Resmed ASV.

A search of this site yielded only three members who have used Ventmed devices, including one mention of VM7 (but unfortunately only one brief post, the other two members had the older DS series). There are also manuals listed for the older DS series (without APCV) but not for the newer VM series (with APCV mode).

RE: Any experiences with Ventmed VM8 or other Ventmed devices?
This CPAP brand is not common to the North American continent, making it very rare. As you stated, you could only find 3 posts here about it.  Out of curiosity only, I would like to see its file structure.  If you would, please zip your SD data card and send it to my Dropbox folder.  

Here is the Dropbox URL: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/tluumtei8...3yyuj&dl=0
Please include your username in the filename, so I can keep track of it.

Also, you need to update your profile to show your new CPAP.

As should be clear in my post I don't have any Ventmed as yet.
