Oscar Data
I have not posted in a long time. Before my message I want to preface that I am aware that my ASV machine is recalled. Pillips was only offering me $25 and for me to return my machine to them. I can't sleep without this machine and I can't afford a new one. I will not go through insurance as deductibles and all that jazz is more expensive for me. I did remove the foam from my machine 6 months ago. The reason for this post is I am trying to interpret the data Oscar is generating. I am a mouth breather and for most of the night cannot breathe through my nose. I also have really high pressure. I have not changed my settings in many years. It is difficult for me to control leaks. I bought a new mask. F&P simplus full face mask. I switched from Resmed AirFit F30 as it was leaking so bad and I was getting wind burn around my nose from the leaks. My leaks are much better now. I don't know what these tidal volume and patient triggered breaths are. I feel fine today. It looks like the majority of the apneas are H and CA. My OA is very low. I just don't really know how to interpret all of this. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. 100+ an hour. I use my machine every night. Are these high tidal volumes normal. The machine triggered breaths seem to be high. Or are these expected?
