oscar/settings help - phoebesalva - 01-09-2024

I got my mask to fit way better (thanks opalrose!) but now im not sure what setting i should have. I tried turning on EPR the night before last and left it on APAP mode and then last night I did CPAP mode with set pressure to 7. My husband had to wake me up after almost 9 hours of sleep and I feel so tired. I thought my numbers were ok but maybe not?

If it were me I'd use Apap mode, and set your pressure from 7-12  Your machine won't go higher than you need, and I think you would be more comfortable.

Set your Min to 7, that will allow the full utilization of EPR which should help with your flow limitations and even out your pressure excursions.

I’ll try that! Thank you Gideon and Deborah!
