Managing data

The SD card may be used to monitor patient usage as well as treatment pressure, mask leak, and
incidence of apnoeas and hypopnoeas. To assess the patient's progress, data for the last session may be
compared to values for the last week, the last month, the last three months, the last six months, and the
last year. The device stores usage and summary data for up to 365 sessions.

SD card

The SD card allows the
device to capture data. The
device comes with the SD
card already inserted and
ready to be used.
Compliance data is also
stored on the device, so
if the card is lost, the data
is not. You can also create
new treatment settings and
transfer them to the patient's
device via the SD card.
Device settings are written
to the SD card. This allows
a ResMed PC application to
display actual device settings
from the SD card instead of
the default values.
