Re: First night, high AHI

Re: First night, high AHI

Hi, Sleepyhead from last night. Glad to say the AHI is down to 8. I went with the F10, it was pretty comfortable, but suspect it leaks when I sleep on my side. http://imgur.com/ABlnaXj There was a point where the pressure was at 18 and just pushing out the mask and my eyes. Turned off at that point....

Re: First night, high AHI

I don't know if the Devilbiss Auto you used for the titration even flags centrals...so the lack of centrals on a report from that machine may not mean that they didn't happen. Did you also have a home sleep study? If you did...did you wear a chest belt? Yeah, it was a home sleep study. There was so...

Re: First night, high AHI

Thanks Pugsy. Appreciate it. Im sure I wasn't fully awake, but maybe partially. After putting the mask back on at like 4am, I dont remember being awake for long, but I guess thats the problem with poor sleep, you don't know whats happening I will def just keep it up and keep monitoring to see if it ...

Re: First night, high AHI

Hi Pugsy (and others) Sleepyhead report - http://imgur.com/tuMgOKA The titration test was done alone over 2 nights with a Devillbiss auto and nasal mask. The centrals do seem very strange. Looking at the graph I now remember the gap where i did take the mask off (was hurting a bit) and put it back o...

Hi, Both initial reports here Sleep study - http://imgur.com/oxBoIla Titration test - http://imgur.com/xAsql9b No centrals reported during the sleep study. During titration I came down to AHI of 8. For the test I was using a nose mask (as opposed to pillows). Later this evening after kids are asleep...

Re: First night, high AHI

Hi all.

Thanks very much for the input. I will post a sleepyhead screenshot here if maybe someone has some input, but i'm happy to continue using it for a few nights before I try to start understanding the data. I was wondering, would mouth breathing with nasal pillows cause this effect?

Thanks!

First night, high AHI

Hi all, New CPAP user. I have an Airsense 10 auto, climate line tubing and P10 mask. The night went fairly well, mask was a little uncomfortable, but something I think I could get used to. No leaks were reported. I was really surprised to see the machine report an AHI of 39, and central AH of 38.1 (...
