How to Adjust Pressure and Other Settings on the ResMed AirSense 11 (Air11)

Adjusting the pressure settings of the ResMed AirSense 11 CPAP machine should only be done with the doctor's permission. Here’s how to change the CPAP ramp time, pressure settings, and other settings of the device.
ResMed AirSense 11 - How to Adjust Pressure & Other Settings article: bit.ly/3TxNzuP
NOTE: CPAP pressure that is too high or low can cause side effects. Consult with your doctor beforehand to ensure the CPAP pressure is set correctly for your prescribed sleep therapy. With that understood, this tutorial will explain how to adjust the pressure of your ResMed AirSense 11 AutoSet, Elite, and CPAP models. A prescription is always required to purchase a PAP device so always purchase from a reputable company.

Thanks for the info! being able to adjust my max pressure is key here. I was so tired of the machine ramping up to 12-14 (I only need 8-10) and waking me up because the mask is leaking from the increased pressure. My machine is now dialed in and I sleep thru the night and wake up refreshed.. Thank you !

[@joeruder]

Same here....was told 'only your doctor can change this' -- but they would not do anything without a in person office visit -- which they could not do for about 7 weeks. A small tweak on the pressure range made a night and day (ha!) difference.

[@huguettelacoste5449]

Finally! Many thanks for this. I have been looking to adjust the pressure as it goes bazurk in the middle of the night with super high pressure. The ResMed team in France would not help - only referred me back to the doctor... only, I am not in the French system (where I would have to pay 60 euros/mth to be monitored... ) so it's an outside firm (like ORKYN) who controls the system. Very annoying... BUT finally, super happy to have control. And I can finally sleep well.

Felt like a light breeze and I could feel that the whole Cpap machine wasn't working for me anymore. Came across you video -- I didn't know I could adjust the pressure. Wow, what a wonderful difference, it was on LOW and I put it on the middle setting, And somehow I had turned the heat setting for the hose to OFF, and couldn't find where to turn it back on. With your help, I gat that back on! Wonderful video, thank you!

[@RespShop]

Hello Fernando, Ensure, you do speak to your Dr regarding the changes you make to your CPAP. They will want to make sure your Apneas are being well treated. Too much air can cause one to contain too much CO2, leading to some health issues. Glad to hear the video was of help!

[@user-mt7dn2bn1r]

Great vid. I'm moving from an AirSense 10 Autoset that I've had for over 5 years to a new 11 next week. My doc had previously given me verbal permission to adjust clinical settings as I see fit and this was the vid I was looking for! I adjust the ramp to zero and minimum pressure up from the prescription of 6 cmH2O to 8.6 or so. [My normal pressure at rest is about 11.5]. At the lower start setting I feel like I have to suck in air harder when I start the machine. The DME provider will only set it per the typical prescription settings so I wanted to know how to adjust it when I get it home. Just a preference and your vid showed me how access the clinical menu PLUS some other features that are not part of the AirSense 10. Thanks! PS - if anybody has problems after the warranty period - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE use one of the three Resmed approved vendors for repair (if you are in the US). They know what they are doing. I had to have my blower assembly on my AirSense 10 replaced about a year ago and it was at a reasonable price and warranted for another year. My insurance is covering a new machine so on I go. I'll keep the 10 as a back up.

I am a retired physician and my son is a pulmonologist sleep doctor. Your videos are among the best I have seen. They are informative and well-done. I have moderate sleep apnea, and my son arranged for me to get the Airsense 11. It is my first machine and I have had it for less than a month. My response to CPAP is complicated by a history of nasal polyps, which seems to make me an ‘outlier’. For example, I could not tolerate the Auto settings but things improved dramatically on “Manual”. High humidity settings makes my dry mouth worse. Right now everything is either ‘off’ or set to the ‘lowest’. I am ready to ‘test out’ different settings. Any suggestions for initial settings for people with a history of nasal polyps?

[@RespShop]

Thank you for the kind words. Nasal polyps can be tricky. Suggestion would be to try a full face mask, increase your humidity and use a climate tube to assist with max moisture. Settings are based on sleep study and not around the Polyps itself. You may benefit from a titration study at the sleep lab as well. Thank you for watching!

Thanks so much for this video, as I have a new Resmed Airsense 11 machine prior I had the Airsense 10 and prior another Resmed cpap. the 10 and 11 I received from the V.A. The airsense 10 was in autoset mode but for some reason the airsense 11 was set to cpap mode, and was very uncomfortable for me to use. I have changed my settins thanks to you and am alot more comfortable and the some of the sleep apnea results are the same. I am sure once the figure out that I changed the mode i will get a chewing out. Oh well life is short.

Sure glad that this video and others like it are available because the Lincare representative didn't cover anything about the machine other than turning it on. I guess it's going to be trial and error until I see the pulmonologist on the 30 day follow up visit. I'm going to start out on as many auto settings as available, note any side efforts and adjust accordingly, but make notes on what settings have been changed for the Dr. to review.

I also do suggest not making too many changes your first 30 days. Your body needs time to adjust to treatment and making too many changes to quick can cause your brain and body to become confused with what may work. I always suggest the auto pressures, the device will provide what you need and plenty of practice while awake. Wear the device while watching tv, listening to music or even while reading.

So glad I came across this video. I felt like the machine was suffocating me in the middle of the night, and I was getting no help from the supplier. Adjusting the settings myself made life much better.

I received zero instruction and no one set up the settings for me. My doctor knew nothing about it and the sleep clinic just did the original apnea testing and ordered the machine. You are talking about the prescribed levels but I have had to figure those out myself. Your videos have been invaluable in figuring it out. Now if only I got results that felt like improvements in energy etc. All I get so far is the abstract knowledge that I probably have reduced my risks of stroke and heart disease. Not immediately rewarding but I will try to stick with it anyway.

Hello Nancy, I am sorry to hear your experience with your CPAP provider and Dr has not been to your satisfactory. If you have not purchased your CPAP with RespShop, my suggestion would be to contact your provider and see if you can make an appointment to review your CPAP and they be able to walk you through any questions you have. You are also able to schedule an appointment with one of our medical staff (fee of $49.00/yr) and we can assist with any questions and pull up your compliance to provide suggestions on therapy.

Great Video! You definitely zeroed in on the problem I'm experiencing in the middle of the night; not being able to exhale. Nothing like waking to a mild panic attack. Because of this I end up removing the mask entirely for the rest of the night, which is totally counterproductive. I get it! Looks like I'll be tweaking the EPR settings a bit.

I had my first sleep study in a previous century, and have had success with CPAP therapy for years. When the dreaded "motor life exceeded" message came up at 22k hours on my AS10, my general practitioner set me up with an at-home sleep test, and had an AS11 ordered for me. When I got it from my DME supplier, the prescription was for auto 5-20. I immediately changed it to constant 12cmh2o, as I've been using since the start. The DME wouldn't deviate from the (unqualified) prescription so I took control. I also installed my own SD card to use OSCAR for compliance reporting.

[@RespShop]

Thank you for giving us your feedback Jonathan. We are sorry to hear your DME supplier fell short on the support. Ensure to keep an eye on your AHI and possibly repeat an overnight oximetry to ensure the pressures are treating your sleep apnea adequately. Thank you for watching!

What is Oscar? I have an AS11 and have the myair app. How does Medicare know if you are in compliance?

[@jonathanvoth2479]

OSCAR is an acronym that stands for, "Open Source CPAP Analysis Reporter". OSCAR provides for the viewing of the high-resolution sleep data that is generated by the CPAP and stored on the SD card. OSCAR converts this data to graph form allowing the user to view this data down to a breath by breath level. OSCAR is free to use and is compiled in formats that will operate on Mac, Linux, and Windows. OSCAR can be downloaded from www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/. It is this information that enables you to provide data for discussion with your doctor and/or to view and optimize your personal therapy. OSCAR is also used by many physicians and therapists who consult with patients, and by medical researchers comparing patient/machine responses across multiple platforms. OSCAR provides visual and statistical data details and enables comparisons across machine types and manufacturers, that are not available from proprietary manufacturer software and data products. Professionals who rely on OSCAR to provide research and to serve patient needs will lose this valuable resource if data becomes inaccessible, or only available through the manufacturer's data products.

[@armstronglance]

Thankyou!!! I can’t believe the manual doesn’t cover setting the pressure😮!!!!

[@RespShop]

Happy to help! Changing pressures should be reviewed with your provider or sleep specialist. They will need to ensure you are being treated adequately with the changes you have made.

[@KainsFleshlight]

Seriously though ! I was tripping out....I literally read everything (not just jumping to the section I thought I needed )in the manual ....and NOTHING .......even downloading the app and linking device to phone via Bluetooth....i can't believe they didn't put this in there

[@thomasmorgenstern9204]

That's because only a Doctor should authorize it. Unless you're not interested in the most therapeutic use.

[@KainsFleshlight]

@@thomasmorgenstern9204 I would agree however by the time they had an appointment available it would have been a couple weeks or more ....nd last time I checked with my dad ..he likes to not get suffocated while sleeping lolllll

[@KainsFleshlight]

@@thomasmorgenstern9204 And my dad already went a couple weeks without a cpap at all (his airsense 10's motor gave out thus leading to the two week wait period for them to send the airsense 11.....and to think the doctor even tried saying oh well your gonna have to have another sleep study done and then an appointment....)

[@mchan1007]

Great video with functionality details, something that the Dr. or ResMed refuses to give to CPAP users. Switched over from the Airsense 10 to the Airsense 11 as the former's cellular connectivity was disabled since it was old/outdated. Getting dry mouth so will discuss with my doctor, but do have the humidity on ~4 while too much is uncomfortable, despite living in a dry area during the cold seasons and humid during the hot seasons. No one could explain why sometimes it's hard to breathe with a nasal mask, similar to gasping for air, yet the Airsense 10 is on the low auto setting ~7~8 while anything higher feels like too much air is being pushed. Saw a pulmonology and take 1 breath test and he says my lungs are normal, fine as well as a chest x-ray which came out negative, showing no abnormalities. Just have to keep the bedroom clean and tubings washed. Update: Gravity is the culprit so nasal passages and turbinates are closed when side sleeping.

[@RespShop]

Thank you for watching! If it is difficult for you to breathe from a nasal mask, you may have a deviated septum or some nasal congestion. Try a full face mask and see if this makes it easier for you to breathe. Also ask your provider to turn on your EPR for some exhalation relief.

[@JOSEPH_VEGA]

Excellent presentation. I wish you would of mention for first time users when s/he plucks on the power and the machine screen states “Welcome to AirSense 11. To help us guide Your experience, are you a clinician or a user?” That would have been helpful, for me as a user, on how to proceed.

[@thadeusbaggins9967]

Same here. My abdomen started blowing up like a balloon over the past few weeks, and I had no idea why until I realized that it's likely a side-effect of CPAP, which I started about a month and a half ago. Hoping that reducing the max pressure will help. Good luck!
