AHI still high (OSCAR data) with correct pressure

AHI still high (OSCAR data) with correct pressure
Hello,
I was recently diagnosed with mild sleep apnea at a lab study and had been using my CPAP for a while. My Dreamstation 2 has been showing that my AHI is around 8-10cmH2O. The pressure the lab recommended is 6-9cmH2O, while the one I am currently using is 7-10cmH2O. I tried to sleep with the pressure they recommended but it did not bring my AHI down. I confirmed this AHI by using the OSCAR app with my Dreamstation 2 data.
Can someone take a look at my screenshot and see if there is anything special going on?

Most of your events are Clear Airway events. People new to CPAP sometimes have these more frequently at the start of therapy as they get used to sleeping with air pressure. Give it a few more days and see if they decrease.
