A scoring item offered on the DeVilbiss Intellipap machine that OP has. Will have to wait on Emelia to answer as she has same machine. Little expiratory puffs or breaths from mouth.

She will probably want to know just how many exhale puffs are a lot..
So 77Godspeed...How many exhale puffs were reported for last night?
