G'Day please have a look - Jackofjr - 12-10-2024

G'Day would anyone mind have a look at this chart and let me know how I'm doing , I tried a V-Com last night but I think I probably should of increased the pressure a bit .   Much appreciated regards Jacko .                                            [attachment=0]screenshot-20241110-145719.png[/attachment]

You look good to me.  What do you think of the V-com?


RE: G'Day please have a look - Old Steve - 12-10-2024

I forgot to ask how you were feeling, and to mention that the only thing I saw was that your flow limits were a little high, although running in CPAP mode I wouldn't expect them to be much better.

Thanks Steve . I’m not sure what I think of the v-com yet, I only got it out of curiosity. I still feel tied in the daytime but that’s just me , I always have .

Hi,

I agree your graphs look pretty good.

Maybe try minimum pressure 8, maximum 11, and  EPR set to 3. And see where that goes.


RE: G'Day please have a look - Jackofjr - 12-11-2024

Thanks . I have always used a fixed pressure and have never used EPR


RE: G'Day please have a look - Old Steve - 12-11-2024

What may be worth a try is to do what I do.  I run in CPAP mode at 9.4cm and use EPR set at 2.  You may want to experiment with the EPR as it may bring your flow limits down a bit. Flow limitations may cause some arousals affecting your sleep quality.  If you try using EPR I am not sure if the V-com will work correctly, so you may want to check that out.  Good luck...
