Riddle me this..
so the nite I looked at the info from icon premo, and am confused.
AHI was 0.0
But mask leakage was 56 l/min vs 30avg
And senseAwake had 41 occurrences. Avg 13 I think
How is this even possible?
I did however notice last nite due to a big whistle, that the top wasn't sealed properly where humidifier water is.... not sure if that would put machine out of whack or what

RE: Riddle me this..
The air leaking from the humidifier lid almost certainly accounts for the extra 'mask' leakage you noticed. In addition, that much leakage usually invalidates all other data, so I wouldn't trust either the AHI or the SenseAwake numbers.
I'm not familiar with the Icon Premo, but all CPAP machines have limits on how much air they can push and still maintain pressure. The air flow and pressure sensors also have limits on their accuracy at the limits of their ranges, which you may be nearing with that much leakage.

Ahhhh. K.
Thanks
Don't recall hearing that much whistle the nite before. Maybe I had too much wine. Haha
Tightened it down last nite.
Thanks again
