Re: Flow Rate Disturbances But No Events?
They are ALL examples of irregular breathing while awake or half awake. Now what caused the arousals...million dollar question but I am betting on some sort of spontaneous arousal. 2 types of arousals....respiratory or airway related and spontaneous which means no known cause. If you are seeing a l...

Re: Flow Rate Disturbances But No Events?
No flagging because the criteria to earn a flag isn't met. That little irregularity at is just a very short lived arousal episode. It isn't a big deal and you probably don't even remember that arousal. If you see LOTS of these sort of arousal segments then it might point to poor sleep quality for s...

Flow Rate Disturbances But No Events?
Hey all, I drilled through last night's OSCAR data, and I'm seeing a bunch of disturbances from the "expected" flow rate, but they are not being marked as events. Are any of these problematic? If so, any idea what kind of events they are? Expected flow rate: https://imgur.com/a/80ojpgN Flow rate dis...

Re: First Couple Nights On CPAP Have Been Pretty Bad, Advice?
Is there a general time period that it usually takes for the chest symptoms to abate? Not really any set time frame but from what I have heard from people it is rare for the chest wall soreness to persist past 3 or 4 weeks. Don't worry about the centrals. I am 99% certain that they are a symptom of...

Re: First Couple Nights On CPAP Have Been Pretty Bad, Advice?
Nothing of great excitement on that OSCAR report. I can't adjust the OSCAR image to see the hours of sleep. Is it possible you just didn't get the hours of sleep that you need? I don't see anything that points to needing some sort of setting change that might work a miracle. Sorry... I know that wa...

Re: First Couple Nights On CPAP Have Been Pretty Bad, Advice?
Actually fairly common but it's not from the increased airflow into your lungs. You breathe in the same amount of air as always but what happens is you are exhaling against the incoming pressure and your chest wall muscles are getting a bit more of a workout than they normally get and like any musc...
