Re: Interpreting central events
Is this report typical for you? Have you had reports for all night that look like the first half or do you always have this many centrals or more? This is not always like that. When central events happen, they are usually a little bit less crowded. But few times, this is even worse. And yes, there ...

Re: Interpreting central events
Hi,
Central events typically last for 1 to few hours (see my post above). Each event lasts around 18 seconds, on average.
Thank you

Re: Interpreting central events
Hi Pugsy, The home sleep study that you had...did they also do the EEG electrodes on the head an face to score sleep stages? On any of your reports does it mention event being worse in REM sleep or positional like on your back? No, there was no record of sleep stages. Proportionally, there was twice...

Re: Interpreting central events
No, my doctor doesn't know about it (not yet). I will see him next month.kempo wrote:Does your doctor know about the 10 to 20 centrals an hour?
But, as I tried to explain above, these 10-20 events an hour are not for the entire night, but only for a 1 to 4 hours period.
Thanks.

Re: Interpreting central events
Usually for Central Sleep apnea you would need to use a Resmed Vpap adapt. These machines need to be set to the exact pressure which usually requires a sleep study to be performed. They are a little harder to self diagnosis but not impossible if you have rescan. If I understand you correctly, this ...

Re: Interpreting central events
Hi Pugsy, Would need more information but typically, yes a special machine possibly. Did you get copies of your initial sleep studies? Were there any centrals noted on either? What was your diagnosis? Have you mentioned the centrals to anyone? If so, what was said? What is your pressure? Do you noti...

Interpreting central events
Hi, I've been using my CPAP machine every day for one year now but I still feel tired (too) many days when I wake up. My therapist initially told me it could take as much as 6 months before I can see results, so I did not bother before. But when I look at the data from my S9 Elite, I notice clusters...
