I just loaded the data from the nap that I took a little while ago (I slept about 45 minutes) to check out my new face mask. I also did increase my pressure settings after reading robysue's post, though not yet by as much as she(?) said may be required. The summary stats show no OA's or H's, and the...

@MJS Your are confusing descriptive statistics , which describe populations , with the need to focus on a single case - you own. From the point of view of descriptive statistics, the probability of a single case is zero. That is, you with you singular needs do not even exist as far as descriptive s...

Alternatively, you just increase your min pressure until your pressure chart is relatively smooth and breathing issues aren't waking you up at night. Statistics have nothing to do with that. That would be good advice if... 1) breathing issues were waking me up at night. To the best of my knowledge,...

Since I am too early in my CPAP journey to know what I need, knowing how far my results deviate from what is normal may help me make informed decisions. I don't understand how. Then again, I don't * need * to understand how you think it's going to help you. If I were to learn that my flow restricti...

I'd still like to learn how far (or how many SD's for those who are math professors :wink: ) my Flow Limitation statistics are from the average, Which does you absolutely nothing to help you optimize your therapy. A couple points.... Diagnostic tests in the fields of psychology and medicine (includ...

How harmful are air flow limitations in the absence of Hs and OAs? What is the normal range for the Flow Limitation summary statistics (median, 95%, 99.5%)? Get a drinking straw, breathe through it for a few minutes. That's a flow limitation, let us know what you feel after doing that. Useful analo...

Your AirSense 11 is hugging your max pressure of 7.8 for most of the time you were sleeping with the machine because the machine is detecting a lot of residual flow limitations. And it wants to increase the pressure further in an effort to smooth out the shape of the inhalations and eliminate the f...

Thanks so much for your feedback! I find it helpful to know that RERA events are not considered central apnea. [snip] Second, since you are talking about AHI in the sessions when you were asleep and when you were not asleep, it's worth either posting the whole night's data (and telling us which sess...

Amazon delivered my UV nail light today. Wouldn't it be nice if Amazon were your DME provider! At first the thing did not seem to work on my AirSense 11, until I discovered that ResMed moved their light sensor from the display screen (where it was in the AirSense 10) to the top of the unit on the ri...

Here's my screenshot of those OSCAR graphs:

Is that helpful? I don't really know how to scroll through the timeline of the graphs.

Here is the link to my OSCAR screenshot. I removed (unchecked) the two sessions during which I did not sleep.

It would be helpful if you would post a screenshot of your Oscar chart. You will probably need to use an image-hosting service like Imgur, because the attachment capacity of this site is very limited. I see that OSCAR has 14 charts. Do people post screenshots of all of them? Is there a tutorial lin...

Last night was my best sleep so far using (auto) CPAP. Since my machine won't tell me when I was sleeping :wink:, I made a point of turning my machine off and back on to mark those periods when I did not fall asleep and wanted to pause the therapy to adjust my headgear or humidity setting. I also tu...

Could it be that I am interpreting simple statements in a straight forward manner the way a typical lay person would

Have it your way then, but you are doing yourself a disservice.

What we have here is a failure to communicate.

In fact, during a recent pandemic we witnessed medical and public health agencies cooperating with federal espionage agencies, law enforcement agencies, big tech companies, big media companies, and even medical journal publishers in an effort to deny the public access to scientific research and deb...
