Instructions and Clinician Setup Manuals to help you change pressure settings on most any CPAP machine
by SuperSleeper, Apnea Board Administrator

There is a lot of talk about how it's 'illegal' for Sleep Apnea patients to adjust or change their own CPAP machine pressure settings; that only a licensed, certified or qualified technician, physician or clinician can do it.

First of all, I challenge anyone to show me any local, state or federal law that makes adjusting your own legally-obtained CPAP machine a crime, or even threatens punitive action for doing so. Go ahead, I double-dog dare ya. If you can show me such a law, I'll give you a one-year free membership on Apnea Board. Oh, wait.. that's already free. Moving right along..

Yes, you must first have a prescription to obtain a CPAP machine - but after you OWN one, you are within your rights to do whatever you please with it, including using it as a leaf blower, running it over with the family car, or.. (oh no!) - changing your own pressure settings.

Below is some excellent info regarding setting pressures on common CPAP machines.

When it comes to our health, we need to realize that (contrary to the claims of some health care professionals)no one is looking out for your personal health as much as you. Apnea Board was created to promote 'patient empowerment'-- we believe patients are their own best primary care provider. You can and should be trusted with the knowledge of how to adjust pressure settings on your own CPAP machine. If you use common sense and take simple precautions, you can safely and properly fine-tune your CPAP settings to enhance the effectiveness of your treatment.

We're not providing medical advice here, so we recommend you consult with a qualified sleep doctor before making any changes to sleep apnea therapy. You should never change settings on your CPAP machine without first having a basic understanding of how to properly make such adjustments. CPAP pressures should be changed slowly, in small increments, over a long period of time, taking note of how you feel after each change.

Getting into the clinician setup mode on your CPAP machine is pretty simple, really.
If you're not sure which CPAP model you have, please go to our CPAP Pictures Page to identify your machine.
