Yea that sounds good, ill try min 13cm and max 15cm. Hopefully the collar does the trick. Have you ever heard of people getting even a lower AHI while using lower pressure with nasal mask? My ENT has told me i have a large tongue, i have a theory that because of that, the way a full face mask delivers air through your mouth it would push the tongue back into the airway. While with a nasal mask the air bypasses that area and goes straight through and down your trachea.

I just got my cervical collar i ordered on Amazon but when i lay down with it, it seems to dig into my neck and feels uncomfortable. Anyone here that has a softer one to recommend or any tips? I just ordered a collar called "The Eliminator", and it seems a bit less intrusive. Hm

Hello, i would like to ask for some quick advice. Ive made the switch to bilevel and am still getting a few OA's. Should i turn up my EPAP in order to prevent those and if so by how much. I've Attached a screenshot, Thank you.

Why do you have the CA events turned off?

dang i didnt notice, how do i turn it on?
RE: Newbie - SystemF therapy thread - Crimson Nape - 03-29-2023
Look on the Daily screen, below the graphs on the left side. There should be an unchecked CA listing. Select it.

Hmm where the little arrows bring up a list, i see it but it only shows the 4 events. If i go back to the data of my regular old Airsense 10 i see 6 which includes CA and RERA, but with this new Aircurve 10 OSCAR is only showing the 4 events shown, strange. On the machine itself its reporting 0.0 Central AI so maybe thats why?

Do you have a Resmed ASV? If so, ah-ha!

RE: Newbie - SystemF therapy thread - SystemF - 03-29-2023
Dont think so, it says Vauto
. The ASV are labeled as Aircurve10 ASV on the machine correct?
RE: Newbie - SystemF therapy thread - Crimson Nape - 03-29-2023
The ASV is the only model that I know of that will not report CAs, since it is designed to address these specifically. I don't know what is happening, but I don't feel all is right. Hopefully, someone else can provide additional information. I use an AirCurve 10 VAuto, and it reports 5 types of events, LL, CA, OA, UA, and H.
Since you are switching from an AS10 to the AC 10, you might try creating a test profile and import only the AC10 data to see what happens. After testing, you can delete it if you wish.
