Flow limitation?

Post by Larry C » Sat Aug 02, 2014 9:45 am

Can any one explain this and is there an acceptable range to be in or is it different for everyone.
Thanks

Flow limitations are reductions in air flow for some reason. There is no "acceptable" range that fits everyone.
It also depends on what software is reporting the flow limitations...each brand sort of does things differently.
We can't give you an "acceptable" range with FLs like we do with AHI.
