Events and duration of machine use

Post by Bhall07 » Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:01 am

I have been using the resmed 10 nasal pillow since 8/4 no issues - last 2 days last night I started at 9:30 pm and woke up at 5:00 and the mask was still on - However the sleep report showed that I only used it for 4:40 hours and I had 13 events
I think something might be wrong with the machine. Help!

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.

Welcome, bhall07. We will need some more information to help you figure out what the problem is. If you have a laptop or desktop computer, you can download the software Pugsy linked for you, and you can then upload a "daily chart" here so people can take a look. Please let us know if you hit any snags with Oscar.
Oscar software is available at https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/

It wouldn't be totally impossible for there to be an error in recording usage to the internal software of the machine.
Not a common problem though especially with a relatively new machine.

We need to see detailed data to rule out maybe some other explanation for the inconsistent data reporting.

This is a long shot but check the time setting on your machine. Perhaps the AM/PM are not correct.
