Hi,

I react in parts.

AHI is an example of the good use of stacked bars. They have an common factor: stops and you the how it is divided.

F.e. "Usage" is an example where bars are allowed, but lines give the same information.

The next graphs should not use stacked bars:
Leak rate
Flow limitation
Minute VEnt.
Respiratory Rate

Excuse me for my bad english for this technical issues.
For those who speak Dutch/German: ""De spragge is een zwerige zagge."

Kind regards,

Why is a line chart required. The top of a single value bar chart would give an outline of the graph requested.
[/list]

Sometimes a bar graph is the best, like AHI.
When the y-ax disaplays one value, f.e. "Usage", you can choose.
When you combine f.e. min,median,95% and max, only use a least a bar for one y-value.

An other approach is the daily tab. The "Flow limitation" is a line, the other values can be enabled with dotted lines. For a day results that in a straight line.

  1. Is the tidal Volume the only graph that is impacted
    Are there other graphs that would be required?

Leak rate

I also doubt about "pressure". On the other hand I think a line graph should also not be clear. There are to much values wich from a different kind.

Kind regards,

There is no doubt the suggested graphs should improve user's ability to interpret their data.

Regarding "Tidal Volume" the graph suggests that Tidal Volume is an addition of min,max,95% and median. That is not correct.

Depending on the choice for min,median,95% and max must see immediatly how this value develops.

The conclusion of the example Tidal Volume is that this value flucuates and did not improve. A good graph shows that at once.

The attached graph is a good example how can provide the user quick and good information. The FL 95% increased from 14-3.

RE: OSCAR Overview Line Graph
Hi,

I aattached an example of the Overview AHI Bar graph.

One of the things I can see is that the Clear Airway events starting Frebrary are in majority.
AHI consists of OA,CA etc.
That is why they can be placed in a bar graph.

Min,Max end 95% are the same value but different calculated.
That is why they should not be published like a bar.

Kind regards,

Jan Flikweert

RE: OSCAR Overview Line Graph
Hi,

I attached a graph from daily and marked the "legends"

My advise is to repeat these "legends" in the graphs of "Overview".

Kind regards,
