Pay attention to what Beej said also. Look at your results for both machines and determine of the difference in AHI is primarily hypopneas. If you have been using Sleepyhead all along it will tell you what your HI or hypopneas are. If they went up sharply when you switched to the Dreamstation then it is simply a matter of different algorithms for hypopnea detection. If this is the case, do not worry about the difference in HI. I think the algorithms for apnea detection are more similar except for the algorithms for determining central versus obstructive apneas.

Great night, great machine, great software, splendid forum, magnificent members.

No more comments.

Thank you for your help

Okay, next time I'll ask you for advise. I think I've had a perfect score exactly once. Well done. Cool


To test 7 days in C.Check, keep the adjustments in the minimum and maximum that advise the machine, the result is extraordinary, also to the wise advices received.

From 44 AIH to 0 is not bad, as it says "Perfect", now go from 0.8 to 1.4 AIH

Here in Europe prices are scandalous, so I bought this in the USA at a price of a tcket of the Madrid Opera House

I had my first 0.00 night last night though I'm still a little skeptical that it actually was a perfect score. Regardless, my AHIs are low and I'm feeling so much better so that's the thing that counts.

Well done on achieving this.
