yeah, you can really see that in the last couple I posted. Where they aren't really breaths and it is just kind of slightly passing above/below 0 quickly. Agreed looking at the graphs with the ASV, you just don't see that. the ASV really does an amazing job of smoothing out the breathing patterns. W...

In case that was too far..

Here you go.. a couple even closer.

okay. I went back to October 3rd and pulled a slightly worse than average night. I've grabbed a shot of the entire night, and then focused on one area where it went high twice.

I took it upon myself a few weeks ago to switch myself from a straight cpap at 16, to an ASV machine as I was starting to feel tired again, and couldn't seem to get any consistency in my AHI scores. I have severe apnea (my untreated score was around 59) My cpap scores weren't really bad, but some ni...

Well, here's my experience. I used a fixed cpap machine at a pressure of 16 for about 2 years. Worked fairly well but every morning work up feeling like an overinflated beach ball. My AHI averaged anywhere from about 1 to 5 (but usually closer to 5). I tried various things to bring that down but the...

I switched from a cpap to an ASV about a week ago. Best thing I ever did.

I do have to say though, after using a straight cpap for 2 years, using the ASV felt a tad strange when you were awake before falling asleep. Feeling it correct for what your breathing was doing felt definitely different.

Thanks for the confirmation Pugsy. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and hope it stays this way..

One quick question. I noticed no Central category on the event graph for this machine. I assume this is because the backup rate in these machines basically doesn't allow them to start?

Just looking for some of the regulars to have a look here, but I think I have a bit of a success here. My issue was I have been on a straight cpap machine anywhere from 14-16 pressure for about 2 years. Over the last while I found my AHI was creeping back up, I was finding myself tired in the mornin...

Yeah I realize that.. That's what I get for posting in a rush just before heading out for the day.

Better night last night. Sleepyhead is acting correctly and marking events as normal. Was tired so went to bed early, ran a 2.72 all night. If you toss out the bit of waking up crap at the end, its closer to 2.00. Had a few leaks at the beginning until I woke up and re-adjusted the mask. After that,...

I had a more thorough look through the graph, and yep, there are definitely some events in there that sleepyhead just isn't flagging. At this point, I think I'll just leave at 16 see what surprises tomorrow's data brings.

Well, I bumped my pressure from 15 to 16 last night, and got some interesting results, though I'm having a hard time quite believing what sleepyhead is telling me. I think I might have run into some kind of bug. A little explanation. First off, the display on the airsense says I ran with 3.5 events ...

should I have been given an auto.. yep most likely. Unfortunately back then this is what the doctor prescribed, and I didn't know any different. Also, insurance wouldn't pay for an auto (said it wasn't required), and I didn't know any better. Hence my question. Am I just completely screwed here give...
