New user need help interpreting Sleepyhead results
Hi everyone! I am a new user of cpap and would need some help with interpreting the results of my treatment to make it for effective.
I am currently using the phillips dreamstation auto cpap DSX500T11 without the humidifier.
My nasal mask is the dreamwear by phillips.

I am still adapting to having a cpap machine hence the actual time I am sleeping with the mask on is very little.
This is my sleepyhead results with spacings in the link.
Hope to get some advise on how I should adjust my settings!
Thanks in advance

RE: New user need help interpreting Sleepyhead results
Only one space needed, but good job getting the chart.
Raise minimum pressure to 6.5 and I think you'll be happier with the results. This is pretty typical of a Philips machine in default settings. Events and snores all indicate low pressure, and with a 95% pressure at 7.7 I think you should do much better starting at 6.5-7.0 minimum. We will be able to tell more in a few days. Welcome, and good luck!

Thank you Sleeprider for the fast reply!
I did include 3 days worth of chart in the link just an fyi in case you've missed it
Will adjust my settings accordingly and give an update in a few days time !
