Evaluation of my data

[Gideon]

enigmatic, You are technically correct.

Ignoring the rules, and based on the OP's complaints, a bump of about 2 to 10 to start and see if relief occurs then evaluate from there. By 2 to see if that makes a difference, if not at least a small difference I may be barking up the wrong tree. Thus always the need to evaluate between steps.

Look at Titration protocols for a BiLevel, then just think of exhale pressure applied and inhale pressure applied.

Use Exhale pressure to manage OA events increasing in small increments, typically 1 cm. Repeat as needed
then use Inhale pressure to manage hypopneas, RERAS, and Flow Limitations. Same thing, small increments, typically 1cm.

EPR changes the difference.

Typically the user is over-titrated meaning too much pressure so I rarely comp for the drop of exhale pressure on the initial EPR setting but look for a change in the OA results to see if I need to compensate.

Many will find that they need more pressure than 4 or 5 so I typically suggest a start of at least 7 so EPR can be fully functional. Also it is more difficult to determine the effect of EPR if that value is fluctuating because min pressure is not at least 4+EPR.

I hope that helps some

Thanks Gideon, I am trying to understand that well because I noticed when I lower pressure too much my eyes start to feel swollen and dilated (would think the opposite...).
Trying to be careful not to deviate from no epr lab titration too much at the beginning.

The main reason for that is that they think EPR is strickly what it is marketed as. That is a COMFORT only feature. It is far more than that. use it, you know I would.
They will take credit for your success.
