What does this Intellipap data mean

Post by mray300 » Mon Sep 07, 2009 7:55 pm

I've only had my Smartlink software for a few days. I'm still trying to get my AHI under 5. I used the optilife mask the first part of the night and the Swift lt the second half. Am I right that the optilife mask was better leakwise? Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Yes, leaks look a bit better during the first part of the night. But ... the image is awfully small, so it's very difficult to read the detail in some spots and impossible in others. Can you please make a larger screen snap and post that?

I assume from the flat pressure line (despite very heavy event density on hypopneas) that you are running in CPAP mode, not APAP?

yes. It's on cpap mode 7.5 setting. I started at 7 and was told to reset it to 8 but when I tried that I felt my mouth was being blown open.

Here's another attempt to post my data in a bigger format.

I used my Optilife mask although it isn't my favorite. What is the difference between the red and blue lines? I seem to be having apneas while taking off the mask. Weird.
