Just discovered OSCAR, how does my data look? - mtdang - 08-17-2024
I've been using the Aircurve 10 for almost 5 years now. I would say my sleep has been pretty good throughout the treatment. I just discovered OSCAR and imported my data into it.
Curious how my numbers look and if there are any settings that should be adjusted. I included last 3 days.

You have high flow limitations and some CAs.
You probably want to decrease both.
I suggest the following setting alterations:
Trigger: high ( I presume that your current setting is medium). This alteration will reduce your CAs
Min Epap: 9 cm. With this setting, your OAs will decrease, resulting in a smoother pressure ride and more peaceful sleep.
Let's see the outcome of these changes before deciding about your PS.

Thanks! I will give this a try.

Attached are OSCAR from past couple days.

Your flow limit is still high,
You want to try PS=4.4 and EPAP =11.

If you will remove the Calendar from your Oscar chart it will enable us to see important information down below.

Here is the data from past 3 days after using the updated settings for a couple of weeks.

Your flow limit has improved; you are on the right path.
I suggest increasing the minimum pressure (EPAP) to 13 cm.
