RE: ASV Machine - LarryRapp - 04-18-2018

This is last night.  I have a cold.


RE: ASV Machine - SarcasticDave94 - 04-18-2018

It looks like this is going to be more or less a typical and/or "normal" chart for you Larry. Very good AHI numbers overall. The LL typically shows in the beginning. You did have a cluster of H and UA around midnight.

Is there a "feeling better" trend emerging yet? Besides the cold, and any etc. that is?

Dave,

I really can't tell.  My cold wipes out everything.  I want to eliminate the LL's eventually - I'm not sure how but probably through mask fitting.


RE: ASV Machine - SarcasticDave94 - 04-18-2018

The only thing I can suggest for now is an obvious thing. Use whichever mask gives you the best leak control and comfort. Take care of that cold, Larry.

I have zeroed in on what happened around midnight.  Do you think it is positional?  I notice that the pressure rises to about 25 but won't go higher even though I think it can go to 30.  I wonder if I should try a cervical collar again?


RE: ASV Machine - SarcasticDave94 - 04-18-2018

Yes, I would give the collar another go Larry. Whether you do or not, you're so very close to being consistently great at the numbers side, I don't know if it will be a big change. It could change it enough to feel different on waking up though.

I have one on my wish list, even though I post Zeros quite often. If nothing else for me, it would be an experiment to see what it does.


RE: ASV Machine - SarcasticDave94 - 04-18-2018

FWIW ResMed site says the ASV has pressure range of 4-25.


RE: ASV Machine - LarryRapp - 04-18-2018

Then I wonder why I can set Max IPAP to 30?  (Which I have)


RE: ASV Machine - SarcasticDave94 - 04-18-2018

I am not sure, but let's see if my answer is/was wrong on the pressure range.


RE: ASV Machine - LarryRapp - 04-19-2018

This is last night.  Still have a cold.
