Post Cervical Surgery start up - DEJONES1954 - 10-05-2024
Looking for setting advice after cervical surgery. I posted before about Mask needs after surgery, I finally settled on a ResMed F20 Air Touch padded my mask straps enough to get comfortable. Still working on F20 Airtouch leakage. I've picked up some blue mask liners that stopped the itch around my nose and stopped the irritation. One step at a time. Any and all advice is welcomed.

Looks pretty good. Nice clean chart. Respiratory rate median of 22 and minute ventilation are at the high end of normal (but don't worry about that). You take pretty short, but frequent breaths. Not a problem. Getting that much tidal volume inhaled in such a short amount of time is good - probably very little to no resistance most of the time in your airway IMO.
One large leak there in the 2nd chart, but hopefully you can get that taken care of. If anyone sees anything else to help improve DEJONES1954 therapy, but post.
