2nd night--or is it?

Post by NyNurse33 » Fri Oct 06, 2006 4:00 am

I say this because how can I have the exact same #'s as the night before? Now this is only LCD data, but again:

AHI--1.2
System Leak--20.3
90% pressure-7

It says its only been one session, yet blower hours showing 13.

With me unplugging and plugging it in to get to the therapy screen, am I resetting the data? 13 hours are correct, but shouldn't it show 2 sessions in 7 day average and my #'s don't change?

BTW, I turned my humidifier down to 1 and had no rain out.

Hi Melissa, I do not know,

I unplugged, to see the data, (If you set it to see data you do not need to unplug, did not figure that out this morning) I have zeros except the 8 + hours on the blower.

I posted a similar question on the RemstarMAuto topic.
I can do this, I will do this.

I'm having the same problem with my M-Series Pro CPAP--perhaps it won't show data for the weekly average until an entire week has gone by? Disappointing not to be able to check how the night went without buying the software, if that is the case....

I had exactly the same problem when I first got my Pro. ( See viewtopic.php?t=12983 )

The problem seemed to go away after a few days. Seems like it might be a bug in there algorithm if the number of days is really small?

Thank you, thank you, thank you! That explains it! I just went up and checked and I no longer have zeros!

AHI: 1.2
Leak index: 24.7

Good, right? But I still snored (with machine set at 6), according to DH (less than normal, but still....) Plan to try setting it at 7 tonight, as in my study, a setting of 6 achived AHI of 5, while a setting of 10 echieved AHI of 0. I figure I can work within that range.

In the setup menu (not the patient one, the provider one), you will see something like "Show AHI/Leak or something--I did it yesterday, and my memory isn't what it should be! Set that to Yes, and you'll be able to see this data on the patient menu.

I don't know if I have that option, maybe b/c we have different machines. But I'll check
