Daily Data in Oscar

Post by MarkBr2 » Tue Mar 28, 2023 10:13 am

While using Oscar daily in the recap section are the following
Clear Airway, Obstructive Apnea, Unclassified Apnea, Hypopnia, and RERA (RE), what numbers in each area should I be concerned about ?

What he said, though usually less about "clear airway" (which is central) because unless you have a lot of them, they 're pretty insignificant.

What jumps out at me is your large-leak percentage. It'd be good to address that.

To post a daily chart, take a screenshot, then upload the image to an image-hosting service like Imgur, which will generate a link you can provide in your post. Unfortunately the site has run out of room for direct attachments.

Here is one of my highest AHI nights

https://freeimage.host/i/Hk8PWv9

I use a N30i mask. It has been the most quiet and every time you turn, and I turn a lot, it leaks. If I tighten it too much it does not work correctly.
Back to my original question if any of these or all go above 5 AHI then I have a problem ?

Thanks again

That question cannot be answered accurately because the large leaks are so bad we don't know if the AHI is below 5.0 because nothing happened or if the machine simply couldn't record or respond accurately with that much leak going on.
Maybe it missed a whole bunch of events when the leak was so bad for so long.

You need to figure out what you can do to significantly reduce those really big leaks and the duration of them.
A little large leak we can live with but not this much large leak.

Watch three or four videos about fitting and adjusting that mask - https://www.youtube.com/results?search_ ... +cpap+mask

To clarify: your AHI as reported by your machine is the number of obstructive apneas plus central apneas plus hypopneas you had during the night, divided by the number of hours you were on the machine.

It isn’t the number of events in each of those categories.
