I know LL doesn't like EPR (or auto settings). I don't fully understand why. True, for a small number of people, EPR can increase the number of CAs, but often those CAs are happening after arousal breathing, and it's the arousal, not the CA itself, that's problematic. What is true for a small numbe...

I can you tell from personal experience that the F30 has an excellent diffuser and does not blow cold air anywhere. Ask your suppliers about a diffuser for the F30i Isn't the only difference between the F30 and F30i that the hose attachment on the i rests on the head? No. Thanks, but not sure thoug...

This is not the first time I've seen this happen... typically folks wake up with the mask off and wonder why? When we get a look at the graph we see... the machine decided *no soup for you*. Let us know how it goes, glad to help. I use AutoStart on my AS10. It turns the machine on when I start brea...

Welcome to the forum bran. I do question a few things though. How is it possible to record any "events" in 55 minutes when you have not been asleep at all and then they state you had 10.9 events plus during that time when I was fiddling around with the mask, as air was escaping and again during that...

No need to post in two threads. https://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t188083/Feeling-of-fluid-on-my-scalp.html I did have a meningitis tumour removed 20 years ago so there was some work done on my head..,maybe that helps explain it? I find it makes me anxious…I just want to know what it is and that it...

Starting four nights ago I replaced my aging AirSense 10 Autoset with the newer 11.

.

I do have a new mask, and maybe that has helped my seal, but it is the same model (the F20) I've been using for ages.

4 days, new mask - how about running for 4 days with the old mask and no other changes?

Did you notice the tremendous difference in your leak rate? The leak - and pressure - grew at the end of the night of 20th, and are much higher on all of the 21st, than they on most of the hours of the 21st. I'd check all the connections in the system - humidifier seal, hose all mask parts, filter d...

Thank you for your answer. I can't think of a reason why I woke up suddenly in the middle of the night. That's not my usual sleep pattern. Nevertherless I feel all-right. That's great. Does it also mean you were not alarmed or sweaty when you woke up? Yesterday I made an appointment with my family ...

How do you feel today? How did you feel with the higher pressures? Do you know what woke you up? What kind of waking was it? About the humidifier: Do you mean you have no humidifier? Or do you mean you don't put water in it? Do you have a heated hose ("Climateline")? Temp. of 27 and humidifier at 4 ...

Very good points by NoOnesPerfect except for one. To make your settings similar to the aircurve, you would need to increase the minimum pressure to 11 on the airsense (the 3 EPR would create a minimum exhale pressure of 8, just like on the aircurve). To get a maximum 16 exhale pressure on the airsen...

To follow up on ozij's post, it would be helpful in particular to know the central apnea index from your original sleep study.

By "original" do you mean a sleep study other than the titration study?

Based on your sleep study and the charts you posted it seems to me that the follow-up with the doctor is very important. You have indications of complex sleep apnea or treatment emergent central apnea that may not be properly treated with a CPAP which is why they suggested you come for a follow-up. ...

Any advice is appreciated .Thanks

Lots of advice here, to those who want good advice:

You'll find written instructions here - the Autoset 10 manual https://www.respshop.com/manuals/ResMed-AirSense-10-for%20her.pdf Page 17 "Adjusting the clinical setting" Do it slowly, not before you're going to bed but rather earlier. You want the Autoset mode, and notice which pressure you're settin...

I watched that video and I'm ready to change the pressure. :D I wouldn't touch the EPR at this point - making more than one change at a time just confuses us. I think 7-10 is a good idea. Make that change, see how you feel, and keep track of you results on OSCAR. Stick to it for 5 nights or so, unl...
