Inspiratory flow restriction?
#1
Inspiratory flow restriction?
Dear all,

Working on getting used to CPAP for three months. Still little positive result (though my AHI has dropped from 41 at sleep test to mostly <5 from day 1.

Tonight was a 'good' night, in that I slept long and without waking up too much. AHI also low. But I feel horrendous at waking up.

I was looking at my flow rate patterns and unsure how to interpret - but when I compare it to some OSCAR wiki pictures it seems like there is some flow limitation due to the non-rounded curves at inhalation? Am I seeing this correctly? Thank you in advance!
