C02 Problem With Centrals?

Post by Patriot Partner » Wed Jun 26, 2019 10:10 am

Had to create a new account, but I had posted a few months ago about "sudden centrals" out of the blue.

Pugsy helped me get that number down, to appx. 2 AHI, but blood tests show that my C02 is a little LOW.

.......................................im trying to remember, something like make PRESSURE SUPPORT ZERO IN CLINCIANS?

If your AHI is 2, any Centrals are insignificant.

Thanks. Yeah, i suppose clinically thats true.

But in the morning, i KNOW exactly what my numbers are gonnna be

....and then also. im making this connection between centrals and carbon dioxide

........and........the centrals may be concentrated into a time window rather than spaced out
