[CPAP] Need help with waking after 1-2 hours
#1
Need help with waking after 1-2 hours
Hello, I am a brand new user to this board, and I'm hoping to get some help!  I just began using Oscar to try and figure out if my recent sleep problems are CPAP or apnea related.  I have been using a CPAP for 7 years with very few problems.  But since June, I have been waking up after just about 1-2 hours of sleep, and having a hard time returning to sleep.  I am now taking sleep medication to fall back asleep, but it only lasts for a few hours.  I use an Airsense 11 with a N20 nasal mask.  I have attempted to upload my last three nights of Oscar charts, I hope I have done this correctly.  Any insights would be really, really appreciated.  Thanks!

RE: Need help with waking after 1-2 hours
The sudden pressure increases probably disturb your sleep causing your waking up.
You can try a higher pressure setting (see below) to mitigate it:
Minimum pressure: 12 cm
Maximum pressure:15 cm
EPR = 3, full time
