G'day Gazz

It looks pretty good as far as I can see. Some of the graphs you've presented aren't particularly important and a couple of the important ones are missing. Have a look at this article to see which are most relevant and how to present them. http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php?title=SleepyHead_Chart_Organization

I note in the machine settings you have "Show AHI" set to off - this should be on, as the AHI is the most fundamental measure of your apnea.

I didn't even realize it was possible to turn off AHI. Without seeing events, flow rate, pressure, leak rate, snores, and flow limitation, the graphs just don't give the information needed for interpretation. The total AHI appears to be less than 2, but we don't know what makes up the events from the posted information, and cannot correlate to machine pressure and other important metrics.

My signature has the articles to learn how to organize data and post using Imgur. By using the forum attachment, you will have to delete a graph in order to have space to post another. This is a loss of information and continuity. For example your image of summary data from your first post is gone. Please use the image link, and if possible keep to a single thread. Starting a new thread for advice means the post previously made won't be considered, so we keep starting over.

At the bottom right and left sides of the data you posted, see the graphs and flags options.

There is a drop down menu, click on what you want to display. When you click on graph and flags, it will turn to green/black instead red/black.

Need to see Events graph, pressure graphs, leak graph, flow limitation, snores.
