events close together

Why do events often happen in clusters. I only a few since being on Cpap, but I notice that often they are minutes apart. Does anyone know why this happens?

still wake up during the night

I have been on Cpap since the end of July. I fall asleep quickly while on it, something that I did not do before Cpap. However, I still wake up a few times during the night. I do fall back to sleep, but I am wondering why I cannot sleep through the night. My machine adjusts from 5 - 12 in pressure. ...

sleepyhead

In sleepyhead….What does the number, inside the parenthesis, mean after events? Does it mean that is how long the event lasted?

AHI change

Since I have been on Cpap, about 6 weeks, my AHI is usually under 0.50, at least most of the time. I know 5.0 is considered normal. My question is that last night it was at 0.97. Why? I had minimal leak rate, my 95% pressure was at 9. I have an auto set resumed machine which is set to go from 5 - 12...

Re: sleepyhead

I am looking at the data on the Sleepyhead program. I do not think my machine tells it all. Tomorrow I am going to take a picture of the data in the morning and in the evening. I am obsessed with the Sleepyhead program. I am amazed at my progress with the CPAP. I was never a Sleep Apnea believer, bu...

Re: sleepyhead

Why would that cause the data to change? I'm not napping and using it during the day. I check it in the morning at around 6 and when I come home from work, at around 5, I go on to analyze my data a little more and that is when I notice the the AHI has changed (usually for the better) and the event n...

sleepyhead

Every morning I check my progress with the Sleepyhead program. I notice that if I check it later in the day, sometimes the data changes, although I do not reinsert the memory thing. Any reason why this happens?

Still have hard time falling asleep

I'm having a hard time falling asleep. I do not think it has anything to do with my mask or my pressure or my cpap therapy at all. I simply cannot fall aslerp. I have AMBION but it does not work. Any suggestions?

Pillow

Does anyone use a CPAP pillow? I'm having a hard time sleeping in my side without adjusting and readjusting the mask. Any suggestions?

Re: New user

Thank you very much for all the information. It says AutoSet on my machine. I have Sleepyhead and am trying to understand everything. The graph that shows leaks has a red line. I'm assuming that the leaks should be below that line. Most of my leaks are below the red. It's so hard to get in a sleep p...

Re: New user

Hi I have a ResMed s9 and use nasal pillows. I have been using this since March 31. Since then my largest amount of episodes was 13 and that was my second day, which I had mask problems. Since then most have been under 3. What's the difference betffween AHI and an event? These numbers seem to differ...

Hi everyone, I have been using my cpap for 1 week. Is there something on the machine that tells about apneas or do I put the program on my computer? I'm wondering if I'm using the mask correctly.
