ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV settings for first night of treatment: Do you agree? - DevinJones - 04-03-2023
Thanks to the suggestions of the moderators here, I just obtained a ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV device to replace my AirSense 11 for almost all clear-airway events and periodic breathing pattern.
I believe moderators here suggested that I start ASV with the ASVAuto default settings and later upload OSCAR screenshots to see if I need manual adjustments.
The ResMed titration guide suggests the following ASVAuto settings:
Min EPAP 4 cm H2O
Max EPAP 15 cm H2O
Min PS 3 cm H2O
Max PS 15 cm H2O
Ramp OFF
Do you agree with these default settings when I start my first night with ASV? Thanks!

The settings you outlined are exactly what Resmed recommends in the titration protocol. We can look at the resulting data from your first night and suggest optimization if needed.
RE: ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV settings for first night of treatment: Do you agree? - DevinJones - 04-04-2023
Thanks very much, Sleeprider. I'll use those settings and return here soon with data and see if you have suggestions for optimization.

Once you get some data and post some screenshots the knowledgeable volunteers here will gladly look at them and provide you on how to proceed
RE: ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV settings for first night of treatment: Do you agree? - DevinJones - 04-04-2023
Yes, thanks! I'm grateful for all the help and can't wait to get going with my new ASV.

Thank you very much, Sleeprider and others, for your analysis and suggestions for adjustments to device settings.
