pressure pulse - staceyburke - 06-26-2020
I have searched the forum and wiki to find out what a pressure pulse is. I have about 50 marks on my flow rate that says pressure pulse(14). What is it and is it important?

That is an exploratory pulse of pressure on a PR machine to see if you would need another pressure. Part of your machines auto algorithm.

That didn't take long.... So nothing to worry about, great news.

Let's call it CPAP SONAR. It sends those pulses out to see if enemy throat pirates have closed your throat or if it remains open.
