Confirming OSCAR Stats

Post by cpapgirl1318 » Fri Feb 26, 2021 11:30 am

I attached a photo. Since I’m just doing this for the first time, I just want to make sure I’m understanding this correctly. This was my data from last night. My pressure is set for a range from 7-15.

So how I’m reading this is - my minimum pressure was 7 and the max it had to go to last night was 12.88, the average pressure was 9.3 and I was at 10.92 pressure for 95% of the time? Is that right?

Hi cpapgirl1318,

'Med' stands for 'median'. It's one of the three kinds of average. It means 'in the middle of a range by probability. There are just as many readings above this number as below'.

The '95 per cent' pressure means 'at OR UNDER this pressure for 95 per cent of the time'. It gives a sense of the 'spread' of pressures.

Max is what it says – the maximum. Usually, to get that number, you go there only once.
