ASV Questions

ASV Questions
Just Started ASV. How does it look and do you recommend any changes? Sleep seems better but I feel more groggy if that makes sense.

Based on my sleep study they set me up with:

epap 6-9
PS 0-5

I notice my inspire time is higher than my expire time. I thought it was supposed to be the other way around

RE: ASV Questions
I would consider increasing PS Min to 3 and PS Max at 9. Move them as slow as it takes for it to be comfortable. When I used ASV, having some PS always aids exhale by the pressure differential. Right now with PS Min 0, you lose some of this assist.
