Airsense 11 and climateline o2
Hey there! My kid is the one with the PAP - I posted before so quick update they added in oxygen at night and we're waiting on a bipap study! The o2 helped a lot! We ended up in the PICU due to a stomach thing and the second they saw what happens in his sleep they were all over it.
My actual question: I see there is a climateline that has the o2 port on it but it looks like they're all for the airsense 10, I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if they work with the 11. Our DME isn't great so I have been trying to know exactly what I need before I ask for it or else they'll send me their closest guess lol thanks!
OH! I wanted to add, OSCAR was an AMAZING tool while he was in the PICU I was able to show them all the data and the RT took notes to tell other patients!!
RE: Airsense 11 and climateline o2
If you are expecting to go to a bi-level machine, you will be using a model 10. Currently, Resmed does not make a bi-level in the 11 series. How soon is the study?

6 months due to staffing issues, we have a refferal into somewhere that might be able to do it faster but still 3 or more months unless someone cancels and we get their spot. Good to know though, will most of my other supplies work with a bipap thats the 10? I'm assuming the masks and everything are mostly able to?
RE: Airsense 11 and climateline o2
Masks, regular hoses, and possibly filters, are interchangeable. Power supplies, humidifier tanks, and ClimateLine hoses are unique to the series.
A point to remember if and when you change models. The AS 11 uses some different file extensions as opposed to the 10 series for the detailed data written to the SD card. For this reason, if you plan on using the same SD card, format it prior to its first use in the AirCurve10.

I'm not seeing any ResMed 11 heated hose with the oxygen bib.
Could a generic accessory oxygen bib work well for now? It would look something like the attached image. It may need to be placed at the mask end for a heated hose to still work.

If the OP is wanting to use the AS11's ClimateLine hose, then this adapter would have to be located at the mask connection.
