RE: ASV Settings
I will use the ASV device as new. I can use manual or automatic.  What risk-free settings should I make?

RE: ASV Settings
Let's forget about old correspondence.
In the past, there was a lot of air leakage due to the mask. I changed the mask.  I will use ASV tonight for the first time. Should I use the device manually or automatically? How should I make the settings in both cases?

RE: ASV Settings
Changing masks or mask type would not require a full reset to your settings. If you're changing mask type, change that setting only.

RE: ASV Settings
There are 2 reports. In one, AHI values and hypone counts are too low and in the other, they are too high. I always sleep in the same position. How can there be such a difference? This different image is constantly occurring. What is the reason?

RE: ASV Settings
The clustering of events and much higher flow limitation on the night of higher AHI both indicate the problem is obstructive, and is likely positional. Your EPAP is fixed at 5.0 and without ASV-auto cannot respond to obstructive events as they are detected. You either need to look at positional remedies or allow EPAP to rise to mitigate obstruction.
