AirCurve 10 exhale chart needs advice - PappaJoe - 06-03-2024
Just started Aircurve 10
No useful advice from Doctor.
Please look at charts and advise which way to 'turn the dials.'
Especially interested in resolving the unusual exhalation waveforms.
Thanks in advance for your assistance

Thank you for posting that PappaJoe. Your chart looks pretty good IMO. 0.01 flow limitations (95%). As to what to do to try to try to resolve the unusual waveforms, you might try increasing your pressure support (PS). You can try it very slowly at 0.2 increments until (hopefully) your waveforms smooth out more. Your other pressures look ok.
I hope that this helps.
