Correct Settings

Post by DAYMX5 » Thu Jul 13, 2017 1:17 pm

I'm trying to figure out what setting I should have set for my ResMed 10 auto.
Here are the results from my sleep study, The Dr had sent out instructions to set my machine to CPAP with a constant pressur of 14.
I'm thining more that it should be on auto with a range of 14-16. Any opinions?

Pressure Distribution
OPTIMAL IPAD EPAP NREM REM SLEEP RDI AHI AVG RDI AROUSAL MIN MINUTES
PRESSURE min min min TOTAL TOTAL SaO2 REM INDEX SaO2 <89
13 13 64.0 7.8 71.8 1.7 1.7 93 0.0 5.8 0.0
X 14 14 65.5 10.8 76.3 0.0 0.0 95 0.0 18.1 0.0
15 15 63.0 20.1 83.1 0.7 0.7 94 3.0 12.3 0.0
16 16 109.5 40.3 149.8 0.8 0.8 95 1.5 18.0 89 0.0

I would set it at 10/16 and try it for a few nights. Then download Sleepyhead software and post some charts for us to look at.
