Oscar question/suggestion - clintber - 03-09-2020

I understand Oscar will display graphs of oximetry data from CPAP machines, but does it also provide a daily summary similar to that of the SpO2 Assistant for the CMS50F? I am most interested in seeing a daily Time(min)<88% and also a summary chart of history for this.

When I had my overnight oximetry test they used a CMS50F, so I bought one. I would prefer to use the XPOD but I would miss some of the data I currently see.

Both the Daily and Overview screens will list the Pulse, SpO2% and Perfusion Index (if your CMS-50 model supports reporting of this parameter). The Overview screen can provide the Minimum, Median, 95-Percentile, and Maximum for 1 or more days. For the Overview screen, you will need to turn on these options in the Preferences ⇾ Waveforms ⇾ parameter name (Overview) section, to enable this reporting.

Yes, thank you. I see that. It would be good for us to see how long we are below 88% as that is what they look at when deciding if we need a prescription for supplemental oxygen. I had that bloated Encore Pro with the SQL database (overkill for an individual) and removed it. I don’t know if it provides that data point.
