Tidal Volume
#1
Tidal Volume
Despite searching around I still don't have a full grasp on Tidal Volume and what a normal chart would look like however, I have noticed a significant change lately in its appearance on the graph. Past charts had less spikes and were in a tighter range. Does the attached chart look normal and is there a way to adjust settings to reduce the erratic spiking? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Tidal Volume
Please post an entire nights chart including the left hand column. Having the flow rate, leaks, and other data will help see the connections.

RE: Tidal Volume
For comparison here is a typical and abnormal night for me. The difference is in the abnormal one I had quite a few leaks.

RE: Tidal Volume
Without seeing the entire chart with the usual graphs, I see nothing in what you posted that looks off.

Please read the “Organise your OSCAR charts” link in my signature for the preferred formatting.
