Re: Minimum Pressure setting

I've been playing around with my Resmed S9 Autoset. Does the Minimum pressure setting really matter if I run it on Autoset? My Dr set it at 5cmH20 I've slowly moved it up to 10.8cmH20 Should I go back down or up? See lots of different things on here. Here is last nights sleepy head graph. I just sw...

Re: Minimum Pressure setting

Thanks for the input, I'll try bumping up the minimum to 13cmH20 tonight and try that for a few nights, then try out continuous at the same and see how it works. I'll post the data in a few days.

Re: Minimum Pressure setting

Hi. Question for you - did you have a titration study done to determine an effective fixed pressure? Just wondering how close your lower pressure is to that pressure. While your AHI looks good, you still snoring makes me think upping your lower pressure just a tad might help. It does appear that mo...

Re: newbie with Amara View mask

Hello I've been using the Amara View since August. I have good and bad nights with it, just when I think I have it wired I wake up tired and check the software and it's been leaking all night. For me the trick was to sinch it down pretty good, those were the nights I had almost zero leakage. and get...

Re: New mask, need help reading my data

Used the mask again last night and I woke up feeling really tired again this morning? Trying to figure out why? I keep the mask on all night, something is wrong, anyone have any ideas?

Re: New mask, need help reading my data

When I used a Simplus, that has a bellows system to seal against the face, yes indeed it had to "float" so the bellows would inflate. However with the Amara View it does not have a bellows system to seal against the face and according to the RT that fit me with it, it is worn much tighter than trad...

Re: New mask, need help reading my data

It does look good? My girlfriend says it sounds like it leaks a lot? I'm wondering if that is from the vents on the front of the mask or if it is still leaking? I'll keep on using it, I've tightened it down, it's is definitely the most comfortable mask hands down, this is mask #4 for me.
