Re: Precise Meaning of MIN and MED
Choosing the appropriate measure depends on the context and the nature of the data. If outliers are present, the median may be a better representation of central tendency. However, both measures provide valuable insights depending on the situation.

Re: Precise Meaning of MIN and MED
Median is not affected by extreme values.

Re: Woke Up Gasping
If so (obstruction only affecting exhalation) might have anticipated choking - too much air - rather than gasping (too little air). But whatever, ….what goes in must come out.

Re: Woke Up Gasping
Sure. Unless there is a significant leak , the volume of air inspired should be close to that of the volume expired. In your beginning three breaths of your original post the volume of air exchanged between 21:04:36 and 21:04:40 is fairly equal between Inspiration and expiration. ( the area under th...

Re: Woke Up Gasping
Referencing the chart in your original post,
What I find to be significant is that your expiratory volume is significantly less than your inhalation volume. If the flow curves are correct, air was accumulating over many breaths (11).

Re: Inspire and hypoventilation
How could it possibly help? Exactly. What I understand is that the INSPIRE delivers mild stimulation to the tongue nerve to prevent the tissues from becoming flaccid. If a patient is not experiencing airway obstruction, but rather "shallow breathing", stimulation of the tongue will accomplish nothi...

I make it a practice to be very skeptical of what the marketing/PR folks say about their product.

Inspire and hypoventilation
I can understand the theory that stimulation by an Inspire device may control obstructive apnea events, but the effectiveness of Inspire to control hypoventilation (non-obstructive)/ hypopnea events seems (to me) to be dubious. Should Inspire be considered for a patient with 90% non-obstructive even...

Re: Upgrading The Defunct Resmed 2G/3G Modems
So like I originally said, you don't have a clue about MyAir. Several forum members seemed to think that their clinicians were using MyAir, but that is probably incorrect. That is the CLUE that I offered in the first place and that was the principle point I wanted to make, to avoid confusion. Appar...

Nothing dishonest about that at all, it’s EXACTLY what you said. ***************************** Clinicians and DME use AirView.
