First 2 reports from Encore Viewer

Post by otiose » Tue Apr 15, 2008 11:17 am

Here are my first two reports from EV.

1st one had a rough start and didn't go to bed until 4am and was interupted sleep.

2nd one, I adjusted low limit and now have AHI below 5. Leak looks a little funny to me and I think it may be mouth leaks (still getting used to keeping it shut, wife says I have this problem during the day also .

Looking for feedback, Thanks

The first report looks a whole lot better than the 2nd, you need to keep your Minimum pressure up closer to 10 cm.

The 2nd report your Minimum pressure is much lower and the resulting train wreck that occurred.

Thanks Snoredog,

I'm thinking of raising low limit to 11.

Also considering lowering the upper limit. I think 15 was a fluke.

I would leave the Maximum at 15 cm.
