I found this link helpful in explaining the result of an oximeter data.

Thanks! This makes the overnight recording oximeter tests as a screen for apnea seem more reasonable.

just got a recording oximeter from echostore. Coincedently enough the night before I got my oximeter, the anti aspixiation valve broke on my mask so I was without a mask for one night. It was the perfect opportunity for me to get a base line without cpap to see how effective the treatment was. Confirmed the treatment is real. I just happened to throw a AHI of 2.1 the next night (usually around AHI of 5). Great for comparison.
