Recently Diagnosed - Q's about Sleephead Data - vsnore2?

Post by tricati » Mon Sep 08, 2014 5:29 am

I am recently diagnosed with OSA, and have been taking a look at my sleep data via Sleepyhead v0.9.6. One of the unusual things that pop up on the data is VS2 (vsnore2). I have not been able to find much online regarding it, but it seems like it is happening quite a lot during the night. Anyone care to share their opinions on that, and the rest of the data?

the prs1 flags two kinds of 'snore' noises it picks up, vs, which causes pressure to rise in auto mode, and vs2 which, for some reason, doesn't. maybe the machine thinks they're too soft to matter, or something.

a little pressure increase might reduce the events you're having, but they're pretty minor all in all. an ahi > 2 is pretty darn good, as the newer version of sleepyhead will tell you on the summary page
