Changed masks 5 times

[LSAT]

Sorry about the last post (I messed up). I recently loaded sleepyhead software and still getting used to it. I attempted to paste the grafts, no luck; anyone know how to past graft on this site

Details Most Recent Last 7 Days Last 30 Days Last 6 months Last Year
AHI 2.07 2.86 2.61 2.57 2.57
Hours per Night 05:48 06:02 06:23 06:23 06:23
Average Pressure 8.51 9.09 9.39 9.38 9.38
95% Pressure 10.28 12.12 12.54 12.50 12.50
Average Leaks 9.57 8.28 4.91 4.79 4.79
95% Leaks 39.60 39.60 26.40 25.20 25.20

I am still not sure how to read this data. However, It looks like a lower AHI (number of Apena incidents)that the sleep study showed. I think the sleep study showed 13-15; and I was severe on my back.

The Doc order the APAP mode and the DME said it was set up on APAP mode.

While using the full face mask my nose bridge and forehead also got bruised and raw.

My CPAP is Resmed S9 Autoset.

Thanks for the tips and feedback

Your profile says S9 Elite...which is it. It should say on the top/front of the unit

The Quattro Air beat the heck out of my nose bridge so I went to the Quattro FX. It's an excellent, light mask but one drawback is that it rides up on one's face during the night and causes air leaks. Go to a DME store and get a soft, velcro chinstrap that'll link the lower straps and prevent those leaks. As well, Pad-A-Cheek makes the mask very, VERY comfortable to the extent that no strap marks or nose abrasions occur.

Again, be patient but for my money and sleep, a QFX with chinstrap is a winner.

Thanks for the tip

My comment is just remember every face is unique so each of us react differently to a mask. What works for me may not work for you. Keep trying and you will find "the one". Hang in there.

Hang in there. I probably tried more masks than 5. Many of them were the ones you listed. I know alternate between the Swift FX for Her and F&P Eson Nasal.
