better flow rate ? - opo218 - 06-09-2024
Which has the better flow rate? Which has less arousal? Trying to optimize therapy so i don't get as many arousales even though they are not marked by the ahi number.

It is a difficult question, as you have different leaks which can cause the arousals.
Would be better to compare when looking at nights with no leaks.

I have no answer for you, but it will help if you change your Oscar screenshot so that we can better help you. Remove the calendar from the left panel. This will allow us to see more important data lower on the panel. Show the following items in the order listed on the chart: Event Flags, Flow Rate, Pressure, Leak Rate, and Flow Limits. We need to see to the very bottom of the Flow Limits. Thanks.
