Thank you for this. I think, it’s possible that my last machine was pre used as you can hold your breath for as long as possible and the air flow does not increase. Something is not right. Are there any serial numbers that one could trace how old a machine is or any way to check if the machine has clocked up hours already. ☘️🌝🌲
Which one is the lightest between these two machines? Please INCLUDE THE BAG and ONLY THE HEATED HOSE, (not the other hose that is in the pack) and REMOVE ANY BOOKS AND PACKING before you weigh them. Thanks
The run hours shouldn't be able to be reset. Most machines require you to access a clinical menu in order to view that and wouldn't be accessible on a patient's main menu. Most people do not know how to access a clinical menu. It's a crap shoot on getting a used machine or new.
@@USAMedicalSupply Many of us know how to access the clinical menu. Can the Resmed 10 machine be reset to zero hours? If used would it show actual hours?
These machines need to be completely redesigned. It's meant to help you breath but in most cases it will make it harder to breathe lol. It's such a dumb machine that just rams air in to your nose. I think it needs to be able to sense the air pressure more precisely and with waaayy less latency.
I asked if my machine was new and the therapist said yes. But it looks dirty. How can I make sure it is clean enough to use. He just told me I needed to trust a little. I’m afraid to use it.
I have a EVO 804 APAP only 25 hours I really did not use this model I can't find a mask for it or VA it's in brand new condition . do you have a mask for sale that works with this APAP ? it's set on CPAP can't find the CD ! It's set on 11 p it runs great ! Got it new years ago from VA
How about just replacing a machine? My wife has an old 15 years bipap that died. Looking at getting new Phillips to replace. Does that mean she needs another sleep study to get it?
Very informative information. I got mine today (resmed ). Thanks to your instruction on how to finding out if the machine was used. Turned out mine has 98 work hours . Is that normal ?
Mine did not. But I put one in and I use the free OSCAR software to look at my own results w/o any help of the doctor. It's amazing software and easy to use. Just google it.
It doesn't come with an SD card. I saw my supplier open a new one which she took out of different drawer, as part of the process of setting up my new machine. It was definitely new. Clean case, all the books in, plastic on the screen, 6 free filters to start with etc.
You can program it in front of the patient but those days seem to have passed. We use a separate power supply to program all our machines as it's more efficient to begin with for the company.
Thank you for your advice. I’m getting my machine soon. Either a Resmed airsend 10 (Default) or I can get abs ask for a Phillips dream station DSX500H11. Which one would you recommend? TIA
LX EP They are very similar and you can’t lose either way. I feel Philips has better people working for them and has offered us better customer service by far over ResMed.
I bought a new resmed air curve st 10. Can you comment on this machine. The seller gave me the amara view face mask by Philips. Most of the time air leaks. Do you think I have to change my face mask to Resmed Airfit 20.?
My resimed 10 was used and also malfunctioned . Water filled the tube so much i almost drowned breathing in the water. woke up with , could not breath with full tube of water. The company called it a faulty machine , her settings were off . Not good .
For Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset, there is a hours usage counter that tells how many hours the machine was used. Is there a way for the vendor to reset this to zero? When I received my "new" machine, I found out that about 4,000 hours were logged on it, which is between 1.3 to 2 years of use, depending how many hours various people used it. I sent it back and will not deal with the big players out there. Thanks for your video, especially for the 50% non-compliance heads up. The unit was billed to medicare at full, new price, but I stopped that from happening. The penalty for fraud against a government agency is up to $1,000,000 and imprisonment. If you are aware of fraud and don't report it, you are implicated in the fraud. Joe the government contractor
I'm a respiratory therapist, not in the sleep industry. He's using smoke and mirrors to lead people to believe he is something special. Using your ignorance of what happens as an advantage. Prices are sky frickin high, and where are all these refurb units he talks about? Says he wouldn't sell them to a patient, then who is he selling them to? Who else besides a patient would buy one? Beware, the dme industry as a whole is sketchy af
Saltysteele They are on our website for sale. Before COVID-19 it was easy to sell refurbished units for $395. Half the price of new with less then 100 hours? Patient is 100% aware of refurbished. What do you think the National Companies do with returns?! If you aren’t in the sleep industry how would you even know? Ignorant statement by someone not even in the sleep industry...
@@USAMedicalSupply True, but you don't need to be in the sleep industry to know what is going on and to complain about it. DME suppliers have very long rapsheets--all the big ones and many small ones. Wheelchairs, walkers, electric carts, and many other items. You alluded to what "some" vendors do. They ship them in bulk far away at a deep discount tof some other dealer to unload them. Every one of them deserves prosecution. Thanks for pointing out this aspect of the shady DME vendors.

My wife got her brand new Resmed today from the NHS. Diagnosed a week ago so didn't had to wait long. Brilliant.
Thank you so much, they gave me a used one and I returned it.
I think I got a used one it did not come with the heater hose, they unwrapped a plain cheap one .
Also, you can get an SD card, download OSCAR and after the first night of use take the SD card out of the unit and plug it into your computer and wait for the data to load. If you look at the history it will tell you if it was used and when it was set up from factory.
Thank you this is the best advise i have heard sense doing my research
Thanks

Thank you so much for those tips
Eye opening! I'll be checking the hours on my new machine as soon as it arrives ... wouldn't have thought to do so otherwise. Thank you!

Just about to get one here in Canada. Thank you for the tips!
Can the DME reset the hours in service back to zero? Wouldn't that be the easiest way to know if the machine was used or not?
The run hours shouldn't be able to be reset. Most machines require you to access a clinical menu in order to view that and wouldn't be accessible on a patient's main menu. Most people do not know how to access a clinical menu. It's a crap shoot on getting a used machine or new.

John Bolduc I don’t know of any way to reset blower hours. Never heard of that being done.
Is there any way to check the serial numbers to see if someone has used the machine before me?
Thank you for this video. I'm getting mine soon.Great advice !
can you check the used hour of the machine? and how can you check it? thanks
Yes, you have to access the clinical menu.
Hold both buttons for 3 seconds not the start pump button. Just the 2 on front. Write down your setup
These machines need to be completely redesigned.
It's meant to help you breath but in most cases it will make it harder to breathe lol.

Look at the blower hours.
I would be pissed if I got somebody's old machine I don't care how clean it was.
Why don't you have the Dreamstation available for sale on your site?
We do. Type "Dreamstation" in search box. It's $395.
My Resmed Airense 10 had a 2nd sticker over the original sticker with different lot numbers but same serial number. That mean it was used?
Did you check blower hours?
I have a EVO 804 APAP only 25 hours I really did not use this model I can't find a mask for it or VA it's in brand new condition . do you have a mask for sale that works with this APAP ? it's set on CPAP can't find the CD ! It's set on 11 p it runs great ! Got it new years ago from VA

Brian Perry No, ask your PCP for a script with Settings.
Very informative information. I got mine today (resmed ). Thanks to your instruction on how to finding out if the machine was used. Turned out mine has 98 work hours . Is that normal ?
Raymond Texas01 Should be 0 to 1 on instruction. 98 blower hours is used before you most likely. To be safe, just ask for the box.
@@USAMedicalSupply okay. I will tell them to send me a brand new one with 0 hours. Thank you so much for your time. 🙏
Thank you very much for the advice. Does this machine connect to the iPhone through an app?
Yes they both do.
I’ve had my machine for couple years, should I have it up dated.
If it still works and you are cleaning it properly, I would imagine you don't.
Does the Resmed AirSense 10 Autoset come with an SD card from the factory?
Great question! I haven't seen them in the devices. I'm assuming since they are cell data capable, no need for the extra cost to add.
Mine did not. But I put one in and I use the free OSCAR software to look at my own results w/o any help of the doctor. It's amazing software and easy to use. Just google it.
Mine came with an SD card. Everything was new In the bag.
xfiler2013 That’s great! Good luck
It doesn't come with an SD card. I saw my supplier open a new one which she took out of different drawer, as part of the process of setting up my new machine. It was definitely new. Clean case, all the books in, plastic on the screen, 6 free filters to start with etc.
But the therapist needs to open the power supply and cords to power up for programming the machine for the client.
You can program it in front of the patient but those days seem to have passed. We use a separate power supply to program all our machines as it's more efficient to begin with for the company.
How to use please explain

I wonder how this will affect virus transmission.
love the flag in the background..where can I get one like that?
