Tips for getting used to treatment with CPAP ResMed S9 s10 Autoset

Do you suffer from sleep apnea? Do you struggle every night with technology that feels foreign? Do you wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep thanks to a loud device? Are you thinking about stopping treatment?

Well, here are a few tips to get used to the treatment with CPAP ResMed S9 Autoset

1. Mentality

The right attitude is the number 1 prerequisite for your treatment success. You should be aware that it will take a while to get used to the device and that patience is half the battle.

2. Practice makes perfect

It can be helpful to wear the mask during other activities, even during the day. This can help you get used to the mask even faster. During this time, make sure that you breathe relaxed.

These “test runs” can also be used to find out which mask is right for you. If you find the mask uncomfortable, you should not hesitate to contact your healthcare provider or the manufacturer.

It is very likely that in this case your mask is unsuitable for you and needs to be replaced.

3. Perseverance

CPAP treatment will likely last you a lifetime. The sooner you get used to it, the better. You will not be able to get used to the device by using it infrequently.

You can only benefit from the maximum benefits of the treatment if you use it consistently.

4. CPAP volume ( with CPAP ResMed S9 Autoset)

A noisy device may indicate clogged air filters, air leaks, or inadequate connection of individual parts. An air leak can be resolved by making secure connections. You can also contact your manufacturer to check your device or provide you with guidance.

Regular cleaning of the air filters also ensures that the device functions smoothly and quietly.

5. The appropriate device

CPAP machines can have various features. These are designed to be able to solve various challenges optimally and to be as pleasant as possible. Some of these properties are:

1. The “Increase Function” This partially automates the print settings. The device will initially apply a lower pressure and gradually increase it until the preset value is reached. This is intended to make it easier to fall asleep.
2. The SmartStart™ function: Another automation function in which the device only switches on when you breathe in. This is intended to make the getting used to treatment phase easier.

• The EPR™ (Exhalation Pressure Reduction) function: This function gives the feeling of more natural breathing. The device automatically reduces the pressure when you exhale.

1. Device with s9 AutoSet ™ function (Example: CPAP ResMed S9 Autose )t This adjusts the pressure settings throughout the night to suit the different breathing patterns during different sleep phases.

There are many more helpful features and of course more will be added. Choosing a machine with the right features is crucial to making your CPAP treatment more worthwhile.

In addition to these functions , another essential part of the CPAP device is the mask. Because facial features vary from person to person, it is very likely that you will have to try on many different masks until you find one that fits perfectly. There are three main types of masks:

1. Nasal pillow masks: This type is attached to the nostrils and also passes air to you through them. It helps against claustrophobia and obstruction of the field of vision. People who wear glasses and beards prefer this type of mask as it is not affected by either.
2. Nasal masks: Cover your nose and pass the compressed air to you through it. This type is mainly used for patients who move a lot while sleeping or for whom a high pressure setting is necessary.

• Full Face Masks: This type of mask covers the nose and mouth. It is suitable for people who have problems breathing through their nose or who tend to breathe through their mouth while sleeping.

A mask that is tailored to your needs makes a significant contribution to your well-being during treatment. You really shouldn't be afraid to try out different masks if the current one doesn't fit properly.

So what have you learned?

1. Patience.
2. Patience.

• And a little more patience.
