Re: LOW AHI, but high LEAK RATE

I have started wearing a chin strap to help with large leaks. I think maybe I am opening my mouth. I toss and turn during the night due to back pain. I think I may also move up to medium pillows instead of small to see if that helps. If there are any other suggestions please feel free to add them. t...

I have looked at some posts concerning high leak rate, but not found the correct one that addresses my concern. My AHI is usually around .55 to 1.30, But I am seeing high leak rates on my Oscar chart. Should this be of concern? My machine is a Dream-station, mask is an P10 nasal pillow. I recently t...

CMS50D+ Pulse Oximeter

I have a Contec CMS50D+ Pulse Oximeter and am having a problem locating the software. I found what I thought was it, but it does not seem to work for downloading the reports from the meter itself( via usb cable). Does anyone use this meter and can you assist me in solving this issue?

Thanks, Par301
