Using BiPap Resmed Aircurve 10, still exhausted, good O2 Levels - LordofKings - 03-29-2024
New to the forum, so sorry in advance for any mishaps/missing data. Not sure how to address a few issues, but here's a screenshot of my Oscar Data.
I use my Bipap consistently but wake up early in the mornings. The most recent set of data has some missing days because I was testing out a nasal dilator instead of CPAP. Not sure how to pull more detailed information for my Oscar reports. Always wake up tired. Typically get an AHI around 2.5 or less.
O2 monitor ring (wellvue) has me at 92/91% oxygen saturation at the lowest, with scores of 9.8 or above each night.
I cannot determine why I'm still exhausted, wake up exhausted or crash after an hour of waking up.
Settings right now are IPAP of 11, EPAP of 5, Vauto Mode, PS of 4, TI Max of 2, TI Min of 0.3, Trigger Medium.
No Aerophagia as long as I don't go past 11.
I'm very sorry if this is a bad post, tried to follow the formats of some previous posts.

Please use the link in my signature Organizing Your Oscar Charts to provide a daily detail screenshot with the left pane that shows settings and respiratory statistics. These statistic charts are fine for trends, but don't really inform us of how to proceed. You seem to be in Vauto mode at EPAP min 5, Max IPAP 11, and PS 4, or 9/5 to 11/7 pressure, but usage is fragmented and inconsistent. The daily detail chart will better show us how you're responding to the therapy pressure as it changes, and more importantly the respiratory response.

Thank you so much Sleeprider, Mod to the rescue.
Not sure why I can't get any graphs to display for my daily, I'm going to have to troubleshoot that since I know the SD card was in the machine during all of those nights. Going to put my daily overview in here in case that's helpful at all.

Purge the data for that date and import again. This indicates you have summary data and no details.

Just purged and re-imported, no charts displaying still?

It appears the card was not fully inserted in the CPAP while it was in use. The only other possibility is the card is going bad.

Thank you. Going to assume the card is going bad. I'll have to report back here with a new card and new results.

Also, do not write protect the card. About the only card slot that still has a sensor to see if it is locked, is the CPAP, Most new card readers don't have them to save money.

Absolutely, thank you. Yes I always keep it unlocked and when I ejected it from the BIPAP, it was not write-protected and in the unlocked position. So thoroughly confused as to why it's only copying basic information (SD card dying seems like it wouldn't copy any information). So I'm curious as to whether there is a setting that isn't turned on or something else causing only summary information to be written. But I'll still buy a new one, test for a night and report back.

Some users were unaware the card uses a push to lock - push again to unlock the card from the slot. Your CPAP will store 365 days summary data internally, and does not require the card for this. The summary data will be written to the card when it is inserted. The card has to be in the CPAP while it's in use to record the sleep data and high resolution data. The card will store 365 days of sleep data and 365 sessions of the high resolution data.
