AHI (Can Someone Explain?)
I use a sleep apnea machine. One night it stated I had 55.4 AHI in one night using it for three hours. Since then, everything has been good, meaning under 2.0. Reasons or thoughts

RE: AHI
sorry gary, I have nothing, seems like it was just a glitch. I'm glad with under 2, the apnea is being treated well for you with the new machine. You could download sleepyhead from the top of the page. This will give a lot of data from the machine.

For auto-cpap, from machine data or software. You can set the min pressure 1 or 2cm below 95%. Or clinicians commonly use the maximum or 95% pressure for fixed pressure CPAP, this can also be used for min pressure. https://aasm.org/resources/practiceparam...rating.pdf

Download SleepyHead and follow directions in some members' signature lines about how to post charts. That way, you'll get some analysis and insight on your sleep.

RE: AHI (Can Someone Explain?)
I'd also go with a glitch, software or hardware. One night of oddness is not worth sweating.
