Chart Review for New User

Chart Review for New User
Hi,

I was diagnosed with moderate apnea and have been using the Airsense 10 for about 2 weeks. I started off with the nasal pillows but didn't like them and switched to the F20 FFM. I'm sleeping a bit better but still waking up a lot and would love to get my events lower.

Any input would be appreciated. I would love to wake up less and see my numbers lower. Thanks!

You have CAs, which might be caused by the treatment and could disappear spontaneously within a few months.
Temporarily, you might be able to mitigate them by setting your EPR =1.
It would also help us to post your anonymized Sleep Study report.

My EPR is already set at 3. Should I turn it down to 1 or leave it?

I'm attaching one week's worth of data with the F20 (FFM).

Looking back at the original chart, I was tossing and turning a lot after around 2pm, so that may account for some of the CAs.

Set EPR to 1 as stated above.  Let's see if it has any effect on lowering those CA's.
