Help with ASVAuto ResMed AirCurve 10 settings (and esophageal pain)

[RowG]

I have read and listened to everything I possibly can on this subject, but I think some folks who are responding to similar posts perhaps do not understand that there is no way to set the IPAP on some machines; that is the case on my machine. These are the only settings I can access from the clinical menu. I am having discomfort in my esophagus since starting therapy, and I would say that perhaps the pressure is too high. Again, these are the ONLY relevant clinical settings I can adjust on my machine. Any suggestions for something that would be easier on my esophagus?

Min. EPAP: 6
Max. EPAP: 10

Min. PS: 3.0
Max. PS: 13.0

Some folks who respond seem to talk about the EPAP as a single number, but there are two settings--minimum and maximum--to consider.

Thank you in advance for your help.

You are correct, IPAP isn't directly adjusted with settings on the ASV. IPAP will be the sum of EPAP and PS, both of the latter can be edited by you. So editing EPAP, PS, or both indirectly edits IPAP.

Also EPAP is a 2 setting range if you're using ASV Auto mode. ASV mode makes EPAP single.

On to your issue, try turning PS Max to 10, along with that EPAP you mentioned at being 6-10. The OSCAR chart didn't reflect this yet.
