Hello, I am actually posting questions that Steve is directing me to ask.
He is concerned because no one has medically (other than Laurie's help} told him what settings he should have on the Trilogy and if these settings need to change as his breathing capacity is changing. He is now using the Trilogy a lot during the day.
I guess one question would be, should a respiratory therapist be the one who tells him what settings to have? Should he just be adjusting the settings by himself? We are very uneducated as far as the trilogy is concerned. He is concerned because his breathing is getting worse and with over a year on it...no one has ever helped him set it up other than Laurie when we asked here.
The equipment company only comes out to get his data and does nothing. Who is the data going to and shouldn't it be used to keep up with setting change?
He also needs to get a heated hose and humidifier which is not on his current set up.
