The central apneas might go away with time and they might not. Just depends on what is causing them. You might try reducing or turning EPR off and see the centrals reduce....for a very small subset of people using EPR or any exhale relief actually is a trigger for centrals. Dispite what the setting...

I wanted to seek advice on how to lower the amount of apneas my CPAP machine is seeing. Some nights I have a low amount of central apneas and other nights it's higher, like last night. I don't feel as rested when I have more central events and today is no exception. I decreased the pressure to 6 to ...

Here is last night's chart at a pressure of 6.

Should I stay with these settings for a few nights and basically take an average? Yes, your numbers are actually pretty good at this point. the fairly small centrals aren't anything to be concerned about and your obstructive apneas and hypopneas are nice and low, See how you're doing after a few da...

It's quite possible that the EPR is driving up your centrals, can you try turning it off? palerider, I plan to tonight. But turning it down to 1 increased aerophagia to the point that it was waking me up. Do you have any suggestions to minimize it? Try dropping the pressure to 7 palerider, I was ac...

Hi, I'm new to CPAP and I would like some pointers on adjustments to make to my CPAP machine. I had an in-home study in November during a weekend. One report showed 1 obstructive, 1 central, 13 hypopneas and an AHI of 3.7. A different night had 3 obstructive, 4 central, 28 hypopneas, and an AHI of ...

LSAT, I usually go right back to sleep unless I use the bathroom. I also wake up to belch too, so that’s causing problems.

LSAT, I wake up a few times during the night and I suspect it’s due to events. Last night I woke up and I found out there were centrals right before. I don’t know if the CPAP machine is causing them though. Today I’ve felt tired all day and I just want to nap. Regarding the centrals, it’s my underst...

Julie, I forgot to include in my original post that it was setup initially on auto from 5 to 15 but was changed to 7, then to 8. I think they were trying to address aerophagia. Do you suggest changing it to auto?

I think they use they typically prescribe the Resmed 10 if I recall correctly. Be careful....if they typically are using ResMed they probably start with AirSense 10 models and there are 4 of them AirSense 10 CPAP....avoid at all costs...fixed pressure only and extremely limited efficacy data collec...

Ahhhh....like me...you were disappointed they didn't slap a mask on your face in the middle of the night and you thought you failed totally. You want an answer to your problems so you can fix it and you want it right NOW. Trust me....been there and done that. 6 hours of sleep is more than enough to...
