Improvements I think

Post by WhoKnew » Sat Aug 29, 2009 9:28 am

Woke up early this morning to go to work and found that my AHI was 6.7. and for the first time ever, my AI was 0. Leaks were 0.04. I'm not too worried about the HI because of something I discovered last evening. I had prepared for bed early, donned my mask and headgear, and read for a little.

I re-adjusted my mask, as I usually do, and then decided to have a look at my machine data. It showed an HI of 8.8. Leaks were 0.04. I think it was because of the adjusting I was doing. I have no idea why the HI was 8.8 though before I'd even slept. Any thoughts?

My understanding is that the machines have no idea how to record data when you are awake....so I would think any data recorded while you are awake is meaningless.
