Re: newbie—can you help with appropriate mask choice (Asian female) & air settings

... 6-8 mo prior (13 years ago with cpap sleep study with nasal cannula). Is it possible to not perform a bipap titration correctly? It was done by Stanford initially with a nasal cannula to diagnose Uars. I now realized this sleep md who prescribed the apap last April —I asked at the time if I ...
