A misread Dave
AHI is just a little over CAI so nearly all Central.
This goes along with a period of significantly reduced Centrals with an APAP as evidence by the OSCAR charts.

I think I just learned more about my own sleep issues over the span of 5 minutes than I have in 18 months of the traditional route.
It looks like the ResMed VAuto is a bilevel device. Does it have both a Trigger and a Backup Rate setting? So I can try one and then the other without needing a new machine?
What do people generally recommend for updating prescriptions like this? I would rather avoid taking time off work for a full overnight sleep study if there is some simpler solution. Are there doctors, online or in person, that can prescribe a VAuto with OSCAR data?
Thank you thank you thank you all

Ok copy. Not my call, but maybe VAuto trigger would do the trick. Otherwise an ASV.
FWIW the mostly Central and being in the diagnosis has ASV as an option IMO. Required? Not certain.
The VAuto is bilevel with trigger, no backup rate. The ASV has auto backup rate which is what helps with CA.

PS, how to get to something else?
You can use the PSG sleep study report as ammo. Also complain about untreated feel and symptoms.
They may suggest a titration with BPAP and maybe ASV.
