Fischer & Paykel HC-200 Humidity Question


Posted by E on April 19, 2000 at 11:51:52:

After 4 days of CPAP I swapped my Sullivan V and Sullivan Humidaire for an F & P HC-200 yesterday (I travel a lot and the portability issue's a big one for me). Last night I had the humidity set at 2 and I got some rainout. Despite that I didn't feel as "humidified" as I'd like. Am I doing something wrong?

I also got a Breeze nasal pillow system rather than the Mirage nasal mask. I really like the Breeze, but I'm also wondering if the change in perceived humidity levels has anything to do with changing delivery systems.

Thanks in advance for any wisdom.
