How do I reduce these Clear Airway apneas? I am at 7-15 pressure settings, ramp off. Thanks a lot guys for helping me sleep!

In the 2 charts where you slept over 11 hours, or at least that's the length recorded, you had about 7 CA flags in each chart.
Were they real CA? Don't know.
Are they needing addressed? No.
They are not high enough to sacrifice the therapy that on the charts looks good.

As Sarcastic Dave says, your CAs are nothing to worry about. It is normal to have some most nights. When we sigh deeply in our sleep, or have some arousal breathing, we often pause our breathing afterwards, and if the pause is 10 seconds or longer, that gets flagged as a CA. If you zoom in on your events, you can probably see this for yourself.

You only have CAs on two of those five days, and even those are not enough to worry about. There are no changes you can make to your settings that will lower CAs.
