Lots of Ufs on Oscar
What does this mean? Is it centrals or periodic breathing?

RE: Lots of Ufs on Oscar
A UF is a user definable event detected by OSCAR's flow waveform processor. In most cases is is a percentage reduction of peak airflow defined by the user. You can turn off the flag in preferences like me, or change the way the flag is defined in the menu; File/Preference/CPAP/

RE: Lots of Ufs on Oscar
It's definitely nothing to worry about. Some of the members have used them as an indicator of changing airway restriction and "partial hypopnea", but they really are not events recognized by medical standards. Do with them as you see fit, but don't lose any sleep over it. Smile
