Question about the overnight report on the Resmed S9 Autoset

Post by Harold1111 » Tue May 03, 2011 3:38 am

In the overnight report on the Resmed S9 Autoset, what does "Pressure" mean? Is it the average pressure during the night, or is it the maximum that was reached?

Thanks!

Neither. The S9 displays what is called the 95% pressure - the pressure which you were at or below for 95% of the night.
