Understanding Philips Dreamstation data in OSCAR - A-Flex, leak rate and pressure? - Stubert - 05-16-2024 Hi, I am helping a friend optimizing pressure. I have not before read data in OSCAR, from the Dreamstation and have the following querstions: 1. A-Flex on level 2: Looking at the pressure the A-Flex is not constant having a pressure difference of 2, like Resmed's EPR?? 2. How to read the leak rates? Is the lower line showing correct data? 3. Seems like the data about median insp + exp time is not correct. When I manually measure, in the flow rate, the insp + exp time is different. Please see attached from OSCAR. Thank you.

RE: Understanding Philips Dreamstation data in OSCAR - A-Flex, leak rate and pressure? - Stubert - 05-16-2024 Thank you! What is generally said about the Dreamstation, I think ResMEd's EPR must be better with a contant PS. I see that my friend is in trouble everytime the A-Flex drops to a minimum and close to EPAP - would have been a complete different story on EPR?! Foe me to see, An Airsense 10 or 11 would be better and also have more correct OSCAR data???
