Looking for possible solutions to improve sleep

Looking for possible solutions to improve sleep
Hello everyone, 
Thank you in advance to all those who help us diagnose our sleep issues 

I have been trying to improve my sleep for a few months now and have seen great improvements 

These are my most recent results, I see two areas that are of concern 

Leaks and tidal… should should I be concerned?

Currently I am using full face mask
F&P vitera
CPAP 9.2-15 pressure
EPR 2

RE: Looking for possible solutions to improve sleep
Leaks are somewhat an issue, they're borderline high. Measured by below the ResMed 24 L/Min leaks redline, but higher than ideal.

Tidal question, you'd need a different machine to affect this much, and really I'd not concern much over it.

You might try EPR 3 to get a bit more differential between exhale and inhale.

RE: Looking for possible solutions to improve sleep
Welcome

Follow Dave's advice.  He's right, that will help.

Also, it would be helpful if you would make a couple of small changes to your Oscar chart:  

Remove the calendar.  That will allow us to important information lower on the left panel.

Alter the chart itself a little so we can see down to the very bottom of the Flow Limits.  Then we won't need to see the second page at all.  Thanks!  Smile
