Looking for possible solutions to improve sleep - americasclassics - 08-16-2024
Hello everyone,
Thank you in advance to all those who help us diagnose our sleep issues
I have been trying to improve my sleep for a few months now and have seen great improvements
These are my most recent results, I see two areas that are of concern
Leaks and tidal… should should I be concerned?
Currently I am using full face mask
F&P vitera
CPAP 9.2-15 pressure
EPR 2

Leaks are somewhat an issue, they're borderline high. Measured by below the ResMed 24 L/Min leaks redline, but higher than ideal.
Tidal question, you'd need a different machine to affect this much, and really I'd not concern much over it.
You might try EPR 3 to get a bit more differential between exhale and inhale.

Follow Dave's advice. He's right, that will help.
Also, it would be helpful if you would make a couple of small changes to your Oscar chart:
Remove the calendar. That will allow us to important information lower on the left panel.
Alter the chart itself a little so we can see down to the very bottom of the Flow Limits. Then we won't need to see the second page at all. Thanks!
