AHI numbers

Post by hazelson » Tue Jul 21, 2009 10:03 pm

Do the AHI readings (I check in the morning when I turn the CPAP off) mean that is how many I had during the night - the whole 8 hour session?

You can read data on the machine's display for the last session up to 12 noon. There is also average (mean) data for the past week, month, 6 months and year.

If you have a data card, card reader and ResScan 3.7 software, you can get lots of data from your machine.

To get to the data, press and hold the left and right arrow keys at the same time until the word REVIEW appears.

Press Enter (left key). Press down to get to RESULTS, then press Enter twice.

Using the up/down keys you can scroll through 95% Pressure, 95% Leak, AHI, AI and HI.

Using the left key you can switch from day to week, month, etc.

If this does not work, let me know, the results menu is not enabled.

If you PM me with an email address, I can send you much more info on your machine.
