OSCAR data for first 2 full face nights

[flyingcrowgang]

Hello all,

Hope you are well. I tried a few nights with a nasal cushion but kept opening my mouth -- even with mouth tape -- so I switched to a full face. I've attached my data for 2 nights. The second night there's a huge gap because I got my first experience with aerophagia. Thanks for all the help and I'm really warmed by how wonderful this community is.

You are having high flow limits, which need to be lowered.  Turn EPR on full-time, set at 3 and you should see an improvement in therapy and comfort.

Also, if you were opening your mouth while wearing mouth tape you probably need wider and longer tape.  I need to use 2-inch wide tape cut to about 5-1/2 inches long or I still have leaks.  I think you may have a similar issue. I much prefer nasal pillows to full-face masks as the pillows tend to leak less than full-face or nasal masks. Plus, I find the pillows more comfortable.

Good luck!

Thank you so much. I will give both of your advice a try!
