Still new guy with a question. - JohnnyH - 10-09-2015

I was wondering where I could find a description of the happenings that occur to make up the events per hour. It seems I settled into this cpap use pretty well with my usual number being 1.5 events per hour and going as low as .75 one night. I also had one night with a high pain level (not from apnea) and a number of 3.5 was shown the next morning. I have been using cpap for around a month. My apnea was said to be moderate with a pressure of 10 needed to correct it at the sleep center.
