82 at my sleep study.
68 at home at my "prescribed" pressure.
Usually 98 during the day.

Sleep study (Aug 2010): AHI 16 (On mask AHI 0.2) <-- Now, if I could just attain that "0.2" again!

In my pre sleep study home oximetry I was below **% over 90 % of the night.
Doc ordered oxygen at 2 liters every night.
Started CPAP las weeke w pressure of 14 and 2 liters oxygen still.
Have discovered if I am not getting oxygen my brain wakes me up by making horribly nightmares that wake me.

Re: Lowest O2 reading?
My wrist unit might record one or two below 60% on a night. Checking 7 consecutive nights of sleep I spent about 10% of total sleep time below 88% without an ASV. If you factor in my pattern of an hour awake alternating with an hour in apnea, I could guess that while having apneas I might have been spending about 20% of those times below SpO2 88%.
EPAP min=6, EPAP max=15, PS min=3, PS max=12, Max Pressure=30, Backup Rate=8 bpm, Flex=0, Rise Time=1,
90% EPAP=7.0, Avg PS=4.0, Avg bpm 18.3, Avg Min vent 9.2 Lpm, Avg CA/OA/H/AHI = 0.1/0.1/2.1/2.3 ... updated 02/17/12

Re: Lowest O2 reading?
My O2 bottomed out at 21 % . The respiratory nurse told me in her 25 years of work the lowest she had seen had been in the mid 40's . just stayed there for a few secs then back up to mid 90's
