Can't get AHI below 38
Re: Can't get AHI below 38
Thank you for the above explanations.
So I have another question.
I see the 38.28% miscellaneous type of periodic breathing, but how can you have miscellaneous type of periodic breathing when
every single one of the apneas is obstructive?

I also wouldn't call them CSR on the basis we have. Can anyone explain why the machine is'nt going higher?

I do this by positioning the cursor over the area I want to zoom in on and click there -- then either click, click, click till you've zoomed in as far as you want, or use the up and down arrows on your keyboard to zoom in and out.clearyt wrote: I'm unsure of how to enlarge just the one part of the chart?

Re: Can't get AHI below 38
Sorry everyone (and esp. Cleary!), I didn 't realize CSRs were not gauged the same on that machine... so ended up scaring you for nothing... sorry!

Re: Can't get AHI below 38
clearyt, by any chance are you a Kaiser patient? Kaiser routinely does the home test and then sends patients home with a machine. Though it's usually a one-week loaner which is then switched out for a permanent machine.

Re: Can't get AHI below 38
I don't know, maybe the apneas are so frequent that the machine is mistaking sequential obstructives, ... you know more about the algorithms are used in the respironics machines than most. (as indicated by previous posts)Morbius wrote:Thank you for the above explanations.

Re: Can't get AHI below 38
I am so sorry. I am getting lost in the conversation! What can I do that will help you all see what you need to see? I so want to get to the bottom of this and see results from the aggravation of the machine!

Re: Can't get AHI below 38
No worries, not your fault. I think there's some uncertainty about what to advise at the moment. Stand by, and check your PM from Pugsy.clearyt wrote:I am so sorry.

Meantime -- is the screenshot you posted a good representation of most of your nights on the machine this past year?
And -- do you have a copy of your original sleep study report?

every single one of the obstructive apneas is central.
What's the chance of uploading the files (SD20 card or SH folder) to dropbox for breath by breath review?
Re: Can't get AHI below 38
Although it could be that epiglottis thing, but that's quite rare.
Re: Can't get AHI below 38
I was wondering the same thing and I am going to try to get those files so we can see them.Morbius wrote:I am thinking that

And clearyt, don't do anything to your pressure settings yet. There's some stuff to figure out first. You are now in very good hands.
