I have a small problem with the absolute statement and would prefer "can cause"...but that's just my opinion.Applecheeks wrote: ↑Mon May 30, 2022 8:39 amThe EP guy told the Pul guy that Apnea causes AFIB and insisted that the Pul guy order APAP. That's how I've been on APAP for the last six months or so.
This makes me wonder if the weird exhale on the snippet you shared was indeed related to just the way the machine is limited to the 4 cm exhale. If you have a more normal looking exhale at higher pressures.....then maybe what we are seeing on the snippet isn't necessarily anything more than being related to a restriction on the machine itself in terms of what it can do and record.Yes, I do, but only at higher pressures. Those higher pressures having been initiated by "flow limitations" (distorted flow curves).Do you ever see the more typical patterns?
How about a snippet at a higher pressure where the FLs drove the pressure up and you were above the 4 cm limit?
And yes...do this new snippet in the new thread...just link back to this page in this thread so people can see what we have already talked about.
