New mask... leak rate down to 0.30

Post by dusty0318 » Wed Apr 20, 2011 1:32 am

I've started a log of my data. Today's AHI is 5.4 and AI is 1.3. I guess the AI means I had an apneic event???

AHI is apneas and hypopneas index, that is, per hour of machine usage. So your AI is the number you had per hour. To get the number you had during the night, multiply by your usage hours.
