RE: Apap min pressure optimization
GWC2795, thanks for your support!, sorry for the basic question, but how can I adjust Epap pressure in my Dreamstation - by changing CFlex settings?, what is the effect of the ipap / epap pressure difference?

RE: Apap min pressure optimization
Jaswilliams thanks, I'm using my Dreamstation in Auto Cpap mode, being capable to set both minimum and maximum pressures (in my case 6 and 15 H2O cm), so how these pressures relate to Ipap and Epap pressures.

RE: Apap min pressure optimization
If you do not have any of the Flex modes turned on, then your IPAP and EPAP are the same pressure. Your machine is set to start at 6cm and, if needed, go as high as 15cm.
