7 beers and 2 glasses of whiskey and you don't even notice that cpap
This is a fantastic vid mate and the take-home message is spot on (tube size matters in the setting). I noticed there was also a change in therapy mode from fixed cpap at 13cm to Auto. On Auto he had a Med pressure of 10cm (25% less pressure) which dramatically improved the leak rates which might have contributed to the improved results also. Setting the tube at 12 vs 22 would have contributed to the high leak rates seen in cpap mode . If the mask seal was good, setting the tube at 12 vs 22 in CPAP mode would likely improve apnea control as there's an increase in the flow to overcome the extra tube resistance etc, but on this occasion, the extra flow resulted in high mask leaks and reduced apnea control. Keep up the great work buddy :cheers:
I haven’t missed a night without mine in 4 years. Can’t sleep without it.
10 years and counting…….
10 also, never travel overnight trips without it. Even with my motorcycle.
17 years, every night!
Ten here too
Same here. 7 years for me.
I love the way you present information with humor. It makes it much easier to absorb
Thanks!
Not looking forward to going to CPAP store to get outfitted. Leary that reps are not knowledgeable like you seem to be. Discouraged about the learning curve. You are doing such a good service. Thank you, glad I found your channel.
Learning curve cost me lots of money in.masks
Jason. Thanks so much for this post. Even my sleep specialist was unaware of this. Kudos to you for always providing truthful, cogent data for all CPAP users.
you need a new "specialist"
👍
The info about the difference in hoses and how it impacts was great. A big thanks!!!
Thank you for these videos. I am just scratching the surface of your videos and I am learning so much.
Just saw my doc and his fellow was surprised at my 97% usage. Also just upgraded to the smart tubing. Really liking it so far. Great video brother!
Thank you for your usefull, complete and professional support!!!!
Finally!!! You helped me figure out why I'm not getting any good sleep after changing tubes. THANK YOU
I Love your Ho’s joke 😂
I have learned so much from you, I realize how screwed up I am & how much I wish I had some knowledgeable person in my corner.
Im shocked at how hard it is to get to sleep without the machine. I literally try to skip a night and it just wont happen
i cant even do it one night
Do you fall asleep faster now than you did before using a cpap?
Great video. Great detective work as well Jason!
I've been using a CPAP for years and I have NEVER been shown this information about tubing or how it is set on my machine (same as you show in video). My old CPAP supplier had me using one of those "dumb' tubes. It wasn't until they pissed me off (separate issue all together) and I changed suppliers that I was given one of the 'smart' tubes. My sleep quality never changed, that I'm aware of.
Wow, I didn't know any of this about tubing sizes. Thank you SO much!
When I got a new CPAP machine in late July, as my former Philips unit was on the don't use recall and 5+ years in service, it was a new ResMed 10. When I picked it up it had an unheated tube. It was ok but the heater didn't work properly. The replacement tube was a heated one, with the electrical connector in the back, I presume that was the correct hose and would allow for the auto adjustment for the hose diameter. It does work better with the right hose.
Thanks so much for this info. I recently changed my resmed heated tubing (slimline) for a shorter Sunset unheated tube. It's a fat hose. I didn't know about how the size of the rube would cause problems. So now I'm back to the slimline. I'm going to stick with it even if I hate having to deal with all the unnecessary extra length of hose.
I'm a restless sleeper and it wakes me up every time I move.
Did you switch the mask to one with the hose on top?
All this time I’ve been on the wrong tube setting! Thanks for this video and hoping for better sleep after this change.
Awesome video on this situation, thanks.
This vid might have just saved me massive aggravation. I have been on a trial for almost a month and it's been hell. I watched this last night, found out my tubing setting was slim when in fact it wasn't. I changed the setting and it was the first night the res10 didn't wake me up blowing so much air in my face it didn't leak and wake me up. I'm optimisticly looking forward to the remaining 5 nights left in my trial before I'm put on my own res11
This video was very helpful, in my using this machine. Will check out your other videos.
Thank you Jason. I think that might explain why I was having more trouble coping with cpap when I changed from the original ClimateLineAir to the SlimLine (because it was cheaper).
Thank you for the info!
I just looked at my cpap tubes and found that some old used have a chip while new ones do not. Last night I changed the settings from 12 to 15 but that pushed less air or so I felt. The thinner the tube the more air the machine pushes.
Thank you for all the info! I would be lost without you 😊! You are also hysterical!
This video was helpful for understanding the importance of the correct setting in the machine. I have one concern with my setup. I have a 6 ft length of 19mm tubing from the Resvent iBteeze. But I bought a nasal pillow that comes with about 18in of 15mm tubing attached. Do I need to replace my 19mm tubing to match the 15mm on the nasal pillow? Also my machine settings for tube type are 19mm, 15mm, 15 PM2.5, 19 PM2.5. I can't figure out the meaning of PM2.5.
Does it make a difference that the tube downsizes to a much smaller size before connecting to the mask?
Thank you so much for the information, my question is what tubing is best for very high pressure? Thank you.
Good info, thanks.
Glad you made this video Thanks a lot!
If my pressure is typically between 10 and 12, would there be any benefit increasing tube size from 15mm to 22mm?
I had no idea that this setting existed. Thanks!
Thanks for advice sir great job
I just switched to P30i mask & heated tubing last night. (Love the pillows, BTW) I had been using an F30i mask for the past year or so. My supplier switched me over from the standard 22mm tubing to the slimline nearly a year ago & I wasn't told to switch tubing size on my AirSense 10.
Good Information, but how do I check my Resmed Mini Travel CPAP to determine if it is set for the correct size tubing?
I am a Vet with sleep apnea. I have had a CPAP since 2017. Never once has my VA sleep specialist reviewed this data with me. All they care about is daily compliance. My problem is that even when my humidity is set to mid-range I run out of water after just a few hours of sleep. No leaks, climate tube. And they don't seem to have an answer other than no when I ask about a larger tank.
You can usually get a new machine every 5 years, when you replace your machine you may be able find one with a bigger tank. I sometimes need to add water to the tank when I get up to go to bathroom, so I keep the water next to bed on shelf under machine. My travel machine is about one third as big as my RESMED and the water tub is also small.
Unfortunately, most docs nowadays try to get you in and out. The best advocate for yourself is you unfortunately.
I am a vet and the VA is so busy they aren’t able to help with the fine tuning. I was diagnosed in 2017, they gave me a machine and a few masks to try. I have been super compliant, until recently a few weeks. All the sudden I have claustrophobia. I asked for another sleep study, they said no and told me to increase my pressures. I ended up buying an airsense 11 out of pocket. I am also waiting for the bleep eclipse to come in. I watch videos and try adjusting my machine.
Been CPAP User For 14 years. Can't do without it. My old one motor just went out Just got new Luna G3 love it Have where Chin Strap
I noticed over the last week (I'm still in trial period until next week), that the air pressure has lessened. I have the slim line tubing. Wondering if the tube has a hole in it or something. My ResMed does not have a tube type setting option -- only for Temp which doesn't help because the air is still so hot and dry even at 60 degrees.. I CAN"T STAND IT. I even put ice in the reservoir to keep the air cool. I have a full face mask and had it on for a total of 9 hours last night with no or little leak, and my events still increased from 0.2 to 0.9. ???? Do I have a defective machine? Does this tubing easily crack ?
Thank you!
I have the ResMed 11, which was a replacement for the Dream Station recall. My tubing has the chip at the end and is heated. I believe it is the thinner hose (15 mm). My question is, do I need to adjust the settings on the machine? Or does it do it automatically. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I am relatively new to CPAP. Does the smaller hose that leads to the nasal mask have an impact on your sleep?
great information
Which air temperature should I keep for the climateline tubing? Is it just personal preference? I saw yours was 76 degrees.
Ho(s) or Hose - I have no idea my sleep is generally good, but I have more problems with overtightening mask especially after it is about 1/2 worn out. I am on APap and high side is at 19inches of water pressure. I use standard tubung and the settings do not change. I did learn something about the settings - I will have to see if my Aircurve does this as well.
I have a resmed s11 Autoset. I am looking for heated tubing for it. Am I able to use the S10 Climate line for it? or do I have to buy a separate tubing? Really want to increase humidity but it causes rain out. Thank you for help.
Any way to fix the air leaks. I have like air leaks coming from the side or top of the nose area once in a while and it wakes me up. It's like the mask wants to do a fart kinda thing. It's not constant leak, just like a fart and stops. Then a bit later it does the same thing as if build up pressure and leaks a fart.
Thank you! :)
I've been on CPAP since 1996, and it took me a year to get used to it and sleep through the night, now it's 7+ hours a night. I am a hybrid sleeper on back then on side, never take it off.
I get a slight higher pitch sound coming out of mine that keeps me up and I also get air leaking from the top where the hose connects everytime I move my head
Thanks!
thank you for the information, I would have just one question, : I requested my resmed local sales representative for a heated tubing, which is ok but problem remains the tube is not long enough for my nasal mask, how could I fix the problem ? thku
great video. I have both tubes and never checked the setting ;-)
Thanks
Thanks so much … my slimline just broke and I switched to a 22 mm tube that was supplied by my vendor. My sleep has been terrible. I’ll try resetting to see if that helps
Hi Jason, I have been using a ResMed Lumis 150 ST-A VPAP NIV, with litre of oxygen I no longer need oxygen just the NIV, I have been using ClimateLine Air Oxy tubing and when I was taken off the oxygen, I switched to the ClimateLine Air tubing, but the next morning I switched back to the ClimateLine Air Oxy tube and just capped the oxygen port.
Is the ClimateLine Air tube only only available in the 15mm, or is also available in standard 22mm?
Thanks for any help you can give me and keep up the great work 👍
Loving the Friday reference there Craig!
Craig: "We outta milk"
Craigs Dad: "You better pour some water on that damn shit!"
Amazing. You just helped me identify that my CPAP came with its tube setting incorrect! This might have been why I have yet to be able to fall asleep wearing it- it must have been pushing unexpectedly high pressure settings at me
Hi, is it OK to wash climate line heated tubing?
I didn't even consider tube type would change things, but ofc it would....
The "Friday" hooch mama clip 😂
So if my hose says 15 in big numbers, set 15 in the machine?
what chin strap do you recommend? I have a hybrid full face mask and get dry mouth with this mask. I have a S/M F&P Evora Full mask and use a resmed Aircurve 10 ASV machine.
The Resmed mask p10 has a smaller attachment tube, should I be worried if it's connected to a 22mm tube, should it be connected to a slimmer tube?
What about V-Com? 1st, thanks, young man, for your extremely entertaining and informative videos. Very choppy flow rate. Unfortunately, I'm set for and using slimline. However, (per your advice) installed V-Com. How does that fit in with the great info you provide in this video?
I’m trying to send my info from the SD card to my sleep air app.
The f&p sleep style machine has no adjustment in the menu for tube size. So, does the machine automatically adjust, or are you not supposed to use anything but the heated hose or a 22 mm hose? I've only had it for 3 days, and I have been using the unheated hose 22 mm. I haven't been able to find an answer to this question anywhere
Thanks, mine was wrong all this time, didn't know it.
My wife uses a 22mm but it adapts to a slim line short piece. Should she purchase new parts to make is consistent all the way to the mask (Actually nose piece)?
Is the standard tubing make you feel severe dry nose and mouth?
Wow man I knew I had an issue with slimline it made my shallow breathing wrse I couldn't wrk out why ive gone bk using 15m standard I find my breathing easier
Thank you that was very interesting and informative. I'm a CPAP user for 20 years with nasal pillows. I can't lay in my bed without feeling uncomfortable not wearing my CPAP. It's like a teddy bear when I was young.
How did you get used to it? I can't even fall asleep with this
@@Bleeperblopper497 In time you will sleep like a baby.
I was issued a ResMedAS11+Climate tubing (15mm). But between the end of the ClimateLine hose and my face, they had daisy-chain installed a fat (22mm) dumb hose. At my first hardware swap , I "lost" the neutral 22mm tube "in transit". (They took it back.) So comfort obviously went out the window, as the velocity of the air going up my nose was overwhelming. The 22mm segment served to soften the impact of what was blowing in the wind. Took me a while to put 2 and 2 together, but I got the hang of it. What I learned today from this video was that the AS11 would have no idea what my tube situation was beyond the end of the Smart ClimateLine without a manual settings change. (And indeed, when you've got a 15 then a 22, what DO you do? Obviously, nothing , because the settings will not be available for manual adjustment anyway with a ClimateLine installed.)
Two big learns today. Thanks.
My chest always felt someone put a brick on my chest in the morning with the 22 mm tube and my events per hour was going up. I got switched to the slim line tube and my events per hour are very low now. It makes a huge difference.
Jason, good to know, I’m assuming a standard tubing extension tube added onto a climate line is going to affect the pressure as well?
I would think so Abel....I just don't know how! (In SLC later this month)
i been waking up with dry mouth forever and been noticing i have been having shallow breathing in the day and during the night also noticing with the cpap i wake up not breathing.. yes i have had the cpap for 7 years but this is what i can’t understand. also i should mention since september of 2021 i have had pins and needles all over my body. i have the right tubing its the stemline 15mm says it when its plugged in. i wonder if my resmed is making my central sleep apnea worse year by year.
Does Slimline tubing (with the correct setting) reduce the life of the machine?
As you say, the machine has to push more air through the narrower tube to achieve a given pressure level for the patient, so the machine is working harder, correct? And if it works harder, night after night, then the machine's lifespan will shrink a bit, correct?
Regardless of whether Slimline tubing impacts machine lifespan, does it also impact therapy? I like the slimline form factor better than standard 22mm tubing. If I switch to Slimline (and adjust the settings on my machine correctly), will I get exactly the therapy I'd get with 22mm tubing (again, assuming correct settings)?
Many thanks. I discovered your channel today and already I've watched a bunch of your videos and I'm smarter for it. (Well, not smarter, unfortunately, but i learned some really useful stuff from your videos). Love the cat videos!
I have an issue with my cpap causing me extremely dry throat. I use distilled water and get a new hose every 6 months and replace my mask yearly. You got any tips or recommendations? I recently stop using my machine because I keep getting sick and everyone thinks I have covid.
My tube airsense 10 not working ? Uses to work does not recognize
Thank you for information. Is there a special CPAP machine for both obstructive sleep apnea 56% and central sleep apnea 40% or will the machine you are using in this video work?
Yes. It's an ASV. Adaptive Servo Ventilation.
Sometimes the people that score studies are a little bit stupid in tagging Central Apneas...or it was from a home type 3 study....in which case they're definitely false.
Without looking at actual data I don't know.
Holy moly why don’t the DME suppliers or sleep physicians explain this? This could very well be why my sleep has been crap for over a month. I had switched from the slim DS2 heated tube to a standard tube. My machine was set for 15 mm tube. 🤦🏼♂️
how do i get this sort of data about my own cpap usage?
Love your info! Did I say….Go Zags???
Why are there different sizes? Is one better than the other?
I join 2 sections of tubing together, my question is whether or not that effects air sense 11 operation?/?
I use the resmed hose with oxygen adapter after a couple months the adapter at the mask end gets so loose it comes off all the time what can I do to fix this?
Can you tell me how to get a consultation with you, please?
Thanks for the video, Jason. I just bought Respironics performance tubing which was not clearly marked. Website says it's 19mm dia. tubing with 22mm ends, but my Airsense 10 only gives me a choice between Standard and slimline. Any suggestions?
Standard is 22mm
The ends are all 22mm...standard tube is 19mm, slimline is 15mm for Resmed.
My Cpap issue is headgear being to small
What do letters B and G on tubing mean? Cant find it anywhere.
Can you help me out? I feel like complete crap years later after cpap
Is the tubing measurement ID or OD?
I went to Gonzaga-in-Florence 1965-66. The most fun year of my life.
I just got my climate line hose. I have the resmed11 c pap machine. Ive been using the slim line hose. Will the heated hose adjust automatically change over from the slim line to heated hose
Yes. But I found the 11 doesn't bother heating the hose up at all after the first 5 minutes. I suspect a factory defect that is being hushed up. I tried two hoses and two machines (from the same batch).
mind bending. So I've been using "dumb" tubing for 3 years on the airsense10, they upgraded me to airsene 11 and every night my sleep is total crap no matter what i try. I just looked at my airsense 10 and it's set to slimline even tho I've used standard. Why when it was set incorrectly has my sleep been awesome? weird.
When using the ResMed Climate line tubing with the ResMed 10 is it correct that the machine adjusts itself for that tubing!
Correct. That's demoed in the video.
I use a nasal dilator clip and side-sleeping backpack, About $90.00. Happy camper! The backpack can be even cheaper if a DIY type. May not work for everyone, but please try it before signing up for the expensive Flash Gordon supplies.
I have a thick tube/hose. [also juvenile]
