CPAP User for 1 year, can rarely manage to keep it on for 3+ hours

[mauricez]

Hey everyone,

First time posting here. First time using oscar actually to analyze my data.

The main issue i have is that it's really tough for me to keep my mask on for over 3 hours. 

I'm using a ResMed 11 with these settings:

- AutoSet on
- Pressure range: 8-10
- Ramp time: off
- EPR on, full-time
- EPR level: 3

I use nasal pillows as my mask (Resmed Airfit P10).

I've attached my charts from oscar for the past 3 nights. Is there anything that looks off?

Thanks!!

Here's another chart for a rare night where i kept my mask on for ~8 hours.

First, it appears you are operating near the top of your pressure range and might consider re-titrating at a higher upper pressure.

Two, have you considered changing to a nasal or full-face mask, as pillows at higher pressures can produce some discomfort?

I am sure other forum members will provide additional commentary.

You are having a lot of leaks.  Here are some tips to help lower the leaks:

Thank you! Will look into both of those.
