RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - lab rat - 11-06-2014 Okay Machine delivered a few hours ago by Fedex (very professional operation here in Sydney). All up from ordering online to delivery to my doorstep 2 days 15 hours. Am extremely happy with it; Compared to the Resmed S9: the water tank is sooooo much easier to remove, fill, and view the water level the machine is absolutely silent. With the S9 I could hear air rushing through the humidifier from a brief 2 minute test standing with the mask over my face, I can tell this is a great algorithm and no doubt tweaked by Resmed since the S9 first hit the streets the screen is so much easier to read, and I know I can swing the machine around on the bedside table to see it while I'm in bed - a vast improvement it just looks so much better and while it's footprint is only a bit smaller than the s9 it seems a LOT smaller the air inlet is now horizontal whereas the S9 sucked the air off the table (including any dust lying on it the filter is much easier to access, remove, and replace Price in Australia after $500 Health Fund rebate: $1,795 Price from America after delivery, exchange rate, and customs duty: $1,185 SAVING $610 I think back to the prehistoric Sullivan V machine that Resmed sold me in 1996 and compare it to the Airsense 10 and it's like chalk and cheese. God bless Professor Colin Sullivan (after whom the machines were named) from Sydney's RPA hospital for inventing both the air machine AND the mask http://www.smh.com.au/national/health/a-sleeping-timebomb-20120822-24mwd.html RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - vsheline - 11-07-2014 (11-06-2014, 04:38 AM)lab rat Wrote: from a brief 2 minute test standing with the mask over my face, I can tell this is a great algorithm and no doubt tweaked by Resmed since the S9 first hit the streets ResMed has said no changes were introduced in the "enhanced AutoSet" algorithm used on both the S9 AutoSet and A10 AutoSet, but Zonk said his A10 AutoSet seemed to raise the pressure faster and higher, so I suspect perhaps the airflow and pressure sensors may be more sensitive or something. The A10 AutoSet For Her model additionally has the new AutoSet For Her therapy mode, of course.

Definitely noticed a difference in the airflow but can't really describe it, just not as smooth as I was used to with the S9. As you say might be more sensitive or might need "wearing in" lol RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - thom2my - 12-23-2014 (09-04-2014, 03:40 AM)sharp56 Wrote: ACCESSORIES Great writeup sharing - thanks! I'm also from Malaysia - just joined today & it would be great to get in touch with you! Airsense 10 is not yet launched in Malaysia currently. CPAP is expensive here because there's no medical insurance for this. Cheers! =) RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - retlt72 - 01-08-2015 Got my new machine 10 days ago, I am going on vacation next week, with my old one I never took the humidifier since I didn't need it in a hotel, but since it built in to the Airsense 10 I have no option but to bring it, but I want to turn it off how do I do that so I don't have to put water in and used it w/o humidification.

Seems to me you'd just not fill the reservoir. I have run mine a couple of times without water and it seemed to work just fine. No warnings on the screen or anything. Obviously if you are going to be carrying it around you don't want water in it.

I guess that would work as long as the heat doesn't come on. But before I got I asked if the humidifier can be turned off and I was told it could, but no one told me how. RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - retlt72 - 01-09-2015 I found it under the climate control option, if it's set to manual the humidifier can be turned off, thanks all RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - wabbit21 - 01-14-2015 Can someone tell me the correct Part# for a ClimateSense heated tube that will work with my ResMed AirSense 10 Elite? Also, where to buy for the best cost savings? It seems all the ones on eBay are for the S9 model. thanks RE: All you wanted to know about the ResMed Airsense 10 - wabbit21 - 01-14-2015 (01-14-2015, 02:47 PM)wabbit21 Wrote: Can someone tell me the correct Part# for a ClimateSense heated tube that will work with my ResMed AirSense 10 Elite? OK I found it: It is ResMed Part# 37296 Best price so far is $38 free shipping I have a call in to my local equipment supplier to ask about price/availability. can't wait to hear them squirm when they tell me their price which will typically be double... |
