By pressing the Left and Right buttons and holding for 4-5 seconds Efficacy Data will appear on the LCD screen. From then on it is a simple matter of pressing the Left button to Enter, Right button to Exit, Up button to return to the previous screen and Down button to proceed to the next screen. Data available from the Efficacy Data menu are the 95th percentile of Pressure and of Leak, that night's AHI, AI and the compliance (usage) data, i.e. number of hours used that night, number of hours used and number of nights used. The Efficacy Data averages for the past week, month, 6 months and year are also available. You can NOT alter your therapy settings intentionally or accidentally from this advanced patient menu. IF Efficacy Data doesn't appear w/this button combo press then your local DME supplier didn't turn access to that menu on in the Clinicians Menu and you will have to ask them to turn that access on or go into the Clinicians Menu to turn access on yourself.

If you discover how to access the Clinicians Menu - BEFORE you attempt to go into the Clinicians Menu make sure you have a pen and paper handy and write down what appears on EACH screen before you proceed to the next screen so that if you accidentally or intentionally change any of your therapy settings you will know what they were and can change back to them if you need or want to.

The Resmeds can't be beat for ease of access to and the amount of data via the LCD screen.
