Resmed Airsense 10 time to return to low pressure setting
Hi,
I started using a CPAP (Resmed Airsense 10) a week ago. I have been monitoring my sleep with Oscar and I have narrow down the pressure range on my 95% which helped with my AHI. I have raised my humidity level and it seem to help with the nasal inflammation.
I'm still trying to figure out why I have so much brain fog/memory lost using the CPAP. I'm a bit annoyed by how long it take for the Resmed Airsense 10 to return low pressure setting after an event. I feel like the my brain fog could be associated with how long it remains at high pressure after an event. My Dad also suffer from sleep apnea and he had to switch CPAP machine for this exact reason.
Is there anyway to change the return to low pressure time setting in the Resmed?
RE: Resmed Airsense 10 time to return to low pressure setting
Your Cpap machine raises pressure when it finds flow limits. Flow limits are the smallest apnea and resmed increases pressure when it find some to stop them from becoming larger.
Try this and see if it helps
Make sure your EPR is on full time and
EPR is set to 3

Quite a few users of CPAP will seem to feel more tired when first starting therapy. Why exactly I'm not sure.
This therapy is going to take an investment in your time to remedy damage of some years worth of Apnea. It's not resolved in a week. In fact, CPAP therapy is a long term treatment plan not a cure.
Regardless, there's several aspects of therapy to get adjusted to. Mask, pressures, humidity, noise, and then getting used to sleeping with the mask while under the light CPAP air pressures.
