To be honest, the OP asked about central apnea, yet the Oscar report that he posted never mentions central apnea.
His Oscar report says “CLEAR AIRWAY 5.89”

Re: Seems Like I have Central Sleep Apnea - Switch to Bipap Worth it?
From: Central Sleep Apnea, Rana and Sankari, ,Jan 2023BPAP - It can be a viable option in hypercapnic CSA, especially if the patient is unresponsive to CPAP. Dohi et al. suggested the effectiveness of BPAP in patients with HF and CSA with CSB.[25] BPAP acts to normalize the AHI by increasing ventilation and augmenting alveolar volume. A longitudinal cross-section study also suggested using CPAP and BiPAP to treat opioid-related CSA.[26]

That's great, except the CSA that blaird89 doesn't have is hypocapnic, not hypercpanic.

It's up to you to offer evidence that the OP has hypercapnic CSA if you want to post references to that effect.

Actually, I think posting "On" would have been funnier...

Ahem, I don't have tp prove anything, because I never claimed that blaire89 had any condition at all.Rubicon wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 3:06 amCuz I is a expurt.There's a zillion things blaird89 doesn't have, and I have absolutely no desire to disprove (prove?) each and every one.Max46 wrote: Or for that matter, HF, CSB, or opioid-related CSA ?

READ my post, what it said was that a medical professional contends that "BiPaP can be a viable option" and provides references to that effect.
Your argument is with the authors...... not with me!

You're misquoting your quote.
A medical professional contends that "BiPaP can be a viable option BPAP - It can be a viable option in hypercapnic CSA"
