After a few minutes, posts can't be edited.

You will want to try Min pressure 7 in order to get EPR 3 to work fully. It can't do so now with Min pressure 6.

Ramp 4 is stealing a small amount of your therapy time.

Those clusters of Apnea are likely Positional Apnea, where your chin tucks towards your chest, kinking off your airway externally. More pressure will not help, it's easily seen the CPAP jumps to 16 and stays there during the clusters.

Read the wiki on this.

Thank you for the reply. I'm going to use a soft cervical collar tonight and increase the min pressure to 7 to allow EPR to work fully. I will give an update tomorrow. Goodnight!
