It doesn’t look like rounding (1/6=1.6666) but it could be flooring or trunacating.

Whatever it is….as far as I am aware, it doesn’t matter from a treatment effectiveness perspective.

Thanks for the informed responses. Greatly appreciated.

Hi, I’m using a Resmed P30i. How often “should” I replace the pillows? I’ve seen it stated that every 14 days is optimal. However, if they are not leaking, and are still comfortable, why change them at all? It would cost me £40 ($55) to get a new set each time. My current pillows are 2 months old. D...

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Hi, In addition to mouth leaks waking me up, I'm also experiencing the following; Periods of shallower, faster breathing followed by an increase in pulse, an arousal, and occasionally a desat. These apparently do not qualify as an "event" and yet, they still wake me up. I've attached an Oscar screen...

Attached is the OSCAR screen shot. Actually, there was one apnea event recorded and this did register at the time of the deepest desat. I've included a zoomed in view of this as the last image. Although it captured a 12 second OA, it was immediately followed by a non-captured event that lasted just ...

Hi, I’m finding myself mouth leaking (using nasal pillows). This is usually occurring during REM sleep and significantly compromises my treatment (no recorded AHI events but SPO2 drops into low 80’s). I’ve read about mouth taping and that it can be helpful but, mainstream websites (ie. Not CPAP spec...

Hi, I’ve been using a Resmed P30i for the past few weeks. (Pillows) All has been great from a comfort and noise point of view. But, after a review of my data with a sleep tech, they have advised I Change my settings by moving from APAP (8-10.5) to CPAP (11). I’ve done this but I’ve found that the no...

Ah ok! Yes I understand now.

Will only add to this thread from now on rather than create new ones.

Thanks.

The previous thread was about an Obstructive Apnea that lasted over a minute.

This thread was about a Central Apnea with a significant desat.

Thanks.

Your Central is insignificant. Pressure changes will not help Centrals. Leave everything alone..you are doing great. Thanks you LSAT. I know these type of “central” questions repeatedly occur on here from newcomers. So, it’s greatly appreciated. I guess I thought, due to the desat, my circumstance ...

There is no reason whatsoever to be worried about a single event of 20-30 seconds duration as far as I know, but perhaps the experts here will suggest otherwise. Just to put it in context, my own sleep study (before CPAP treatment) showed an AHI of 22.6 and a mean event duration of 28 seconds. And ...

Any reason your max setting is so (relatively) low at 10? It could be keeping the lid on events that want to go higher (and be addressed) but can't because of the cap. Hi Julie, 1 previously had it at 14 but I set it to the 99.5% figure. In any case, my understanding is that a central could be trig...

Hi, I’m 2 weeks into treatment and my AHI is good: 0.35 The only thing that concerns me is the following pattern I’m seeing. Almost every night, I experience a single central apnea that last 20-30 seconds during dreaming. It’s always the most emotionally intense part of the dream. This always result...

Many thanks for your responses.
