Comparison between Breeze/Oracle, with Remstar Auto

[Harper]

Remstar Auto Results ...


At first I thought my Oracle wasn't "recording" onto the Smart Card, when trying to do a "single night record/erase"

I left the Card [un-erased] in a second night, and got a download. I still think there might be some "issues" with the Software ... when it retrieved a "Full Details" download, the "error Interception Screen" came up again, ans said something about an "out of Range Error".

I continued the Download anyway, and got [what seems to be] an accurate download, for last night...

But I think the Oracle might be "fooling" the monitors, in the Remstar Auto, especially concerning LEAKS!

Following, are three recent nights of "Results" with the Breeze, compared to last night with the Oracle:

============================================
NR = central Apnea
OA = Obstructive Apnea
H = Hypopneas
FL = Flow Limitations
S = Snores
============================================
#'s [1-3] = nights with Breeze #4 = Night with Oracle

----------1-------2-------3---------4

NR------0.0----0.0-----0.0-------0.0

OA------0.7----1.2-----0.7-------0.9

H--------0.2----0.5-----0.8-------1.9

FL-------0.6-----0.3----0.4-------0.8

S--------1.0-----1.7-----1.1------0.1

AHI------1.0-----1.7-----1.5------2.8

Average
Leaks---28.9----29.7----26.13---46.95




"90% Pressure", all 4 nights = "11"

Min. Pressure Limit = "10"
Max pressure Limit = "16"
=============================================

I felt like I wasn't "getting enough air" whenever I was using the Breeze. I feel more "energized" with the Oracle, less "out of breath" ... even though the Oracle showed somewhat higher "events" [though the "Snores" went WAY down]

I realize that one night's comparison or the Oracle, with three night's of the Breeze, isn't completely "accurate", but it DOES show that the Remstar Auto seems ro respond differently, to the Oracle. I also realize, there is going to be a "variance" in the "Events", from night to night ...

I am scheduled for Septoplasty Surgery, in mid-January. Maybe this will make my breathing thru the Breeze, easier ...

as it is, I seem to feel better with the Oracle, even considering the "Cotton Mouth"!

I will have to watch my "events", to see if they continue to be "higher", than with the breeze ...

I still don't completely trust this Software ... any Opinions would be greatly appreciated ... Thanks
