Percentages in Oscar - seek clarification
#1
Question 
Percentages in Oscar - seek clarification
At the risk of sounding dull....if my Large Leak reading was 0.11% last night, is it telling me I had a large leak 11% of my total therapy time, or one-tenth of 1%. If it's the first  one, wouldn't it be clearer to say 11%?

Same question for the Time of leak redline percentage (which was 0.106%), Again...is my leak redline over 10%, or just a a tenth of 1%

RE: Percentages in Oscar - seek clarification
It's a true percentage; one tenth of a percent of your total time. If you look at your flow rate or pressure graphs, they will have a light grey overlay when you are over the leak rate red line. At 0.11 %, you won't notice the overlay, but at 10 % it would be noticeable.

One tenth of 1% for both measures strikes me as pretty darn good, correct?

Yep!

Hmm, the forum software doesn't seem to like one word replies...
