RE: Opinions and help Re my usage data please
UPDATE:
OK, I'm back. Following Dormio's suggestions, I changed settings on June 11, and have stayed with those settings until now. Changes and results are as follows: Settings changed on June 11/24 - -EPR from 2 to 3 -Min. starting pressure from 7 Cm to 8 -Max pressure from 12 Cm fixed to 13 fixed ** Auto Ramp continues to be ON Charts from June 27 are included as they represent a typical night. I included the Tidal Volume chart etc. because I think they may reveal something about the quality of sleep I am having. The appearance of these charts vary significantly night to night. A screenshot of the Overview screen is also included for comparison back to periods with different settings. To recap - My AHI numbers are good, but OA events are my major factor. I know they are not all that significant and I think my CPAP therapy is very effective, but I want to tweak the system for the best possible results. My level of daytime wakefulness and wellbeing relative sleep is very good, I think. Thanks for your feedback.

RE: Opinions and help Re my usage data please
I don't see a big difference between pressures of 12 and 13 or between EPR of 2 and EPR of 3. I'd recommend that you stick with EPR of 3, just so you know you're doing the best you can for flow limitation. You could experiment with a higher pressure, but honestly your OA index is so low I don't think there's any real point. You're very well optimized at this point.

RE: Opinions and help Re my usage data please
Thanks Dormeo. That is what I was thinking too.
I would be very close to 0 AHI if there were no Centrals, but I know they are a separate issue, and a minor one for me at this point. Do the other charts (not Flow Rate) I included give any clues as to the quality of my “sleep architecture”? I have a lot of variability in those charts night to night. Thanks for your help. |
