Since being diagnosed with Sleep Apnoea a couple of months back, this channel has become one of my favourite on UA-cam. It is easily the best CPAP channel! After you mentioned in a recent video about lowering the max pressure, I lowered mine and I am consistently getting below 5 AHi every night. I was originally getting on average between 7-11 AHi every night, and for the last 7 days I've consistently managed to get below 5 AHi. Keep up the great work!
why dont our clinicians make as much sense as you....sigh
Fantastic. It totally validated my own experiences with these machines and yes, I use F&P Sleepstyle because its great. It does have that excess pressure thing going on so I cap the max pressure so my mask doesnt blow off or need to be excessively tight. As an ex ICU RN, I look at the data closely. To my unsurprise, people made a religion out of CPAP and go into stores or their doctors and became unwitting converts. They would not be shifted away from their GOD (Philips, Resmed) etc and the believers also carried the superiority complex of exceptionalism in CPAP. Now the truth is out and the religions destroyed. If only F&P could make a sleepstyle that could be serviced. That way Id only need a new motor not a whole new machine right after my warranty expired.
I've been using the Prisma for over a year now, and I can only confirm it t'as super quiet - and is super comfortable too! And my maximum pressure is 8 - not bad for someone who had over 70 apneas per hour!
I was automatic on my resmed 10 with constant red face on machine each morning showing mask leak...so I experimented by putting the machine on cpap mode and the pressure on 7....voila!!!....no more mask leaks....all ahi are under 3or even 2....and better sleep.....my therapist knew less about sleep apnea than anyone I have talked to.
Which machine won finally 🤷♂️
The AirSense 10 Auto costs a LOT more than $200, Nick!
The best thing I ever did with my CPAP, set the max pressure to 12 after a month of using it. I've also slowly moved up my starting pressure as I've got used to he therapy. Now I'm set for 9 to 12 and it's exactly what I need.
Why did this get edited when the winner was said?
Nick, You said it RIGHT, I was sent home as a newbie with pressure set to 11.5 For a mild , issue snoring . Many weeks i gave up , Then went to your channel for info to get back to it. Today my personal settings set by myself NOT the so called Dr's, . My snoring is now gone , pressure max 7, 100% mask fit, Lo ahi always under 4 mostly 0, YES 0, And no morning headache or eye balls poping out of my head . Great job your doing . Thank you
I am barely beginning cpap and I have become very well informed thanks to you. One of the many hurdles that has come with this is having my sleep doctor call me and get frustrated with the fact I was doing my own research and had set the machine to 7-9. He changed it himself to 7-20 and I gave him the benefit of the doubt with some reluctance. You just confirmed that I should have stayed at my settings. Thanks again
After watching this I am really happy that my CPAP trial had a fantastic sleep specialist that set the Resmed 10 at 4 - 10. Been 6 days now and I am shocked at how easy it has been to adjust to it, but a large part of that has been your fantastic videos.
I am thankful that I discovered your videos a few weeks ago. My DME supplier did not educate me in any way on how to interpret my sleep data. My pulmonary guy didn't want to look at it (Do you feel better? Yes. That's all I care about!). I too had to lower my maximum pressure setting downward. It took me several weeks to learn what my data was telling me. My CPAP machine had to be replaced after a few months because of a burning smell and the bad taste it left in my mouth. It happened again after a few months to my number two machine, so I quit using it. Then came the Philips Respironics Dreamstation recall. Just over a year and a half later, I finally receiver my "used machine". Will be replacing the foam sound chamber with a non-foam part. I am not returning my recalled machine.
Your videos really helped a lot when I first started my CPAP therapy. You helped me dodge a bullet when my clinic tried to set me up with a Philips machine at the height of the recall, and when my CPAP was blowing my mouth open and keeping me awake while my therapist modified seemingly random settings to no avail, you showed me how to limit my pressure while maintaining good results. Thanks so much!
My wife and I have Philips. The clinic had just moved her pressure to 21 due to her high AHI number. The first night was horrible. The pressure hurt and the noise kept me awake. I saw your video Resmed vs Philips. I turned the flex off and set the high to 15. The next night her AHI is 1.9. Thank you so much!

I’m so pleased I found this channel. After a recent diagnosis, it’s great that we have a James Hoffman for the CPAP world!
Great video Nick! I’ve been working as a CPAP consultant/clinician for the past year and your videos have helped greatly with my knowledge of PAP treatment, and has come in very handy when trying to solving unusual treatment problems of some of my clients. It’s always great to help optimise treatment of clients who have been receiving poor CPAP treatment for many years. 👍
This was a really helpful video. Caused me to change from APAP on the dreamstation 2 with a 6 to 10 range and instead try a fixed pressure of 8.5 - slightly above the 90% pressure it had shown of 8.2, but still comfortable. Immediate improvement to an AHI of 0.0 ! Thank you.
Another great video thank you for your explanations as a new cpap user it's hard to understand what's really going on at night! Thank you!
