Tap A Pap Question
#1
Tap A Pap Question
I just received a Tap A Pap assembly and after fitting it to myself, I gave it a try. I'm finding that on my exhale , I feel a lot more pressure to push against. I'm using the Resmed Airset 10 Autoset with my pressure set at 11-13. EPR was set at 1, initially. I tried 2 and 3, also, and still felt a lot more pressure to push back against on my exhale. This Tap A Pap seems to let a lot more air through. How about you other Tap A Pap users, what have you found?

RE: Tap A Pap Question
If you're using the Mask Fit feature, then it only uses the maximum pressure you have set, without any EPR settings. In your case, it will be 13 cm both on inhale and exhale.
