Re: New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

It was not painfully full but definitely full. As for the waking up and going to the restroom, I removed my mask but did not turn off my machine. Once I got back to bed, I put the mask back on and left the machine on.

Re: New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

Pugsy, here are my updated OSCAR results with EPR = 3 full time and APAP pressure of 9cm-14cm. I will note that I woke up at 4am (to use the restroom), and could not go back to sleep. 6am is the time my alarm wakes me up. So rather than truly sleep 7hr35m it was probably around 5hr35. So you can ign...

Re: New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

Pugsy, here are my graphs for last night with a minimum of 7 and EPR of 3. I included 2 zoomed in ones where spikes were (excluding marked events) I feel the same as other days, eyes tired. To me, it the data looks worse due to more events, but what do you think in terms of arousals?

Re: New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

No, I'm talking about the flow rate graph. As for the congestion, I sometimes wake up with one nostril congested but honestly it has stopped happening as much since starting CPAP. I do have to pee a lot during the day. Didn't realize it was odd for someone my age to wake up to use the restroom in th...

Re: New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

I am not taking any medications.
Does my flow chart look normal? Are all those spikes, arousals? I thought a good flow rate was to be lacking of any spikes. So many questions, I'm sorry.

New to CPAP, Need help reading OSCAR data

Hello everyone. I am a 22 year old female new to all this. Let me simplify as much as I can. I was diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea with an AHI of 9.4 and an RDI of 17.7. Per Dr. advice, have been using an Autoset Resmed 10. It has been 4 nights and have gotten my AHI down to 0.5 (yay!). The p...
