Question about flow limitations - Uzupan - 08-31-2024
Good evening everyone I have a question about flow limitations. Back in February I purchase a Resmed BiPAP machine and my flow limitations have dropped. Tonight I looked at my numbers on flow limitations over the past several weeks and at the 95% they were 0 and at the 99%, they were .13, .12, .15.
I think that is a good indication of things going right, am I correct to assume this, I currently do not have a chart to post, but that is what I was seeing. They were never that low when I was on my resmed air sense 11.
Thanks!
Mark

We usually look at the 95% number, so it seems like you're on the tight track. Of course, we could tell more by looking at the actual flow limitation graph.
Post a chart when you get a chance.

Attached are my oscar reports for the past 3 nights.
Thanks, Mark

Your flow limits are great, so switching to Vauto helped a lot. It would help us if you would organize your chart a little differently. We need to see the following, and only the following, in the order listed:
Event Flags
Flow Rate
Pressure
Leak Rate
Flow Limits
We need to look at the very bottom of the Flow Limits chart.

OK, I will see if I can get the leak rate posted but the other four are on my Oscar report just in a different order than what you said and I will try to rearrange them in the order that you said as well. I do have some leakage. I will get that tomorrow. Thank you.

Here are the screenshots in the order you asked. I do not have the past 2 nights because I forgot to put my card back in my machine.
Thanks,
