Suggestions to reduce Hypopnea events - sleepless101 - 12-26-2024
Hi,
I have only had my resmed aircurve 11 ASV for a week. I was hoping to get some feedback from office however I do not think that will be happening until sometime next week at best.
Would it be possible to provide some feedback and/or some recommended settings based on Oscar data? I am providing two attachments, both are from the same evening however they are just displaying different information on the left.
Thanks!

You have a very high tidal volume (800's to almost 900 median) and low respiratory rate (7 or so).
You have a similar problem that was presented by a member with ASV just a day ago (here is the thread: Still Exhausted on ASV
FancyFrog
Sleeprider noticed the air "stacking" in this member's OSCAR chart because of too high a PS min.
1st move would seem to be to lower your PS min to 3. See if this helps.

You might want to redo the settings somewhat. You can follow Jay's suggestion, and maybe further consider doing a self Titration with this chart from ResMed.
I would keep the ASV Auto mode, and edit both EPAP Min and Max, then PS Min and Max.
Alternate, if you want a simple edit, maybe turn down PS Min to 3 or 4, move the 2 or 3 you cut from PS Min over to EPAP Min, which is currently at 4.
I would also suggest turning off the Ramp.
