... Had 1.5-2 hours wake time on my whoop data so decided to get a Watchpat study. Results (attached): pRDI: Total events 88. 14.6/hr in REM, 12/hour nREM. Average all night 12.3/hour.

... then after REM you roll to your side and the machine is holding at 12cm because it doesn't lower pressure on auto mode, in that side position in NREM your treatment pressure is 7 and now your getting 5 additional cm of air. You're going to vent that extra pressure out your mouth. And I'm like, ...

... how are rem flow rates supposed to look like? Do people with properly treated sleep apnea have a rem flow chart that is nearly as flat as their NREM flow chart. Thanks.

... during the NREM which are the light stages of sleep.

Does that mean that there's "dark" stages of sleep?

Post central sleep apnea is basically CSA that occurs during the NREM which are the light stages of sleep.

Not even close.

Try again.

Post central sleep apnea is basically CSA that occurs during the NREM which are the light stages of sleep. It’s still classified under CSA and falls under the same category. The simple explanation for the differences between OSA and CSA is OSA is the physical ...

There may be some areas of CAP (cyclic alternating pattern). A cleaner study might be able to better determine that. CAP is a NREM phenomenon where sleep is generally unstable w/o scorable events in the "traditional" sense.

Are you familiar with UARS?

... a "perfect night". Sleep varies all night long, as you move through different sleep phases. Your breathing isn't going to stay the same in REM and NREM sleep. I’m sure Flow Limitations and leaks should be almost nonexistent, but what does a perfect Flow Rate and Resp Rate look like? Again, breathing ...
