Judging CPAP improvement

Judging CPAP improvement
I won't bore you with my history, but a quick question.

I use a Resmed AirCurve 10 Vauto bi-pap.

I get a daily report that includes my events (breathing disruptions).

Over time my events seemed to go down.  But lately they are significantly higher.

Is the "event" reported what was detected and the bi-pap helped me through it?

Or should my "events" be going down because the bi-pap is preventing them?  If so, is this indicative of a worsening condition?

Thanks for putting this board up and your advice and support.  It is fantastic.  I wish my medical team were have as helpful.

Ken

p.s. thanks to you I have been working on my settings and getting a better sleep experience

RE: Judging CPAP improvement
Best thing you can do is load some data from your SD card into OSCAR and take a look. You can screenshot some of your charts from days you have questions about and post them here for the fine folk here to take a look and give you some advice.
Look, I'm an engineer, not a doctor! Please don't take my opinion as a substitute for medical advice.
