ResMed S7 CPAP Setup Guide: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

Sleep apnea is a medical condition which causes an individual to stop breathing during sleep. There are many different treatments for this serious problem, including the use of CPAP. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, or CPAP, is a treatment which uses a medical device to apply pressure to the patient's airway, holding open the soft tissue of the throat to help the patient breath. The amount of pressure needed varies from patient to patient. The ResMed S7 Lightweight CPAP Machine uses a series of keystrokes to provide the patient with access to its clinical menu.
