AVG Leak?

Post by Brobbi » Thu May 13, 2010 9:54 am

I checked my numbers this morning after not doing it in awhile and my AHI is between 1.0 & 2.6 which I feel really good about! I did see that I have an AVG leak between 18 & 20. Any suggestions how how to lower that or is that not a big deal? Still learning here...

With the PR System One, it measures normal mask vent rates in the Average Leak. This is very good, and I doubt you'll get it any lower. This depends on the mask really... With my Liberty it's usually in the upper 40s...
