This part doesn't make sense to me. Is this common? Isn't it the tech's jobs to record the number of events that the subject would have normally?01602697 wrote: During my short sleep the tech woke me up and put me on a machine probably because I had events.
Got a sleep study, but it didn't go well.

Re: Got a sleep study, but it didn't go well.
This is how they do a split study.
If the diagnosis exceeds a certain number AHI,
the lab may proceed with titration--two birds with one stone.

Re: Got a sleep study, but it didn't go well.
yea.. unfortunately the second part of the split study was pretty much nonexistent because I couldn't sleep and took off the machine. So they gave me the AirCurve 10 to titrate for 3 nights as a substitute for the second part.chunkyfrog wrote:This is how they do a split study.

This was my first night with it, didn't sleep well again so the data might be inaccurate

Re: Got a sleep study, but it didn't go well.
What mask did they send you home with? Does it hurt or leak? When I got my machine I was so exhausted from not getting sleep that when I got a close to reasonable fit I was sleeping at least 4 hours before I'd wake up.. and not always then. All that is to say, if you can't sleep tonight try to really wear yourself out. The body will reach a point at which it will make you sleep even if you don't want to.

To find a solution you must admit there is a problem.
Re: Got a sleep study, but it didn't go well.
it looks pretty good... I'd suggest lowering the PS to 1, and raising the minepap to 7 for tonight.PleaseHelp111 wrote:yea.. unfortunately the second part of the split study was pretty much nonexistent because I couldn't sleep and took off the machine.

It was a AirFit F10.. It's so much better than the nasal mask I used in the lab.. Thanks for the tipstratapastor wrote:What mask did they send you home with? Does it hurt or leak?
