Question about airsense 10 autoset

Post by chefmate » Fri Apr 10, 2015 10:34 pm

I was wondering if resmed autoset 10 is able to measure RDI?

I am under the impression that RDI is more inclusive than AHI since it also includes RERA"s and other sleep disturbances.

The regular Airsense AutoSet (Black casing) does not flag RERA events so you would not be able to calculate RDI.

The Airsense AutoSet For Her model (white flowered casing) does flag RERA events, so I guess you could calculate RDI from the For Her Model.
