For instance:
People will use the terms "us" or "we" in an attempt to add credibility to their stupidity. This makes your stupidity simultaneously credible and incredible.

is so vague as to be absolutely meaningless.

So?Rubicon wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 2:22 amIn the highlighted area your tidal volume is 922.81 ml.GearChange wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 6:45 pmhowever my minute ventilation and Tidal Volume are well within the normal range.
On what planet would that be considered to be "well within the normal range"?
But now are you claimingGearChange wrote: ↑Wed Dec 22, 2021 9:37 amAlso, I am 6'2" at 200lb. My Tidal Volume (Vt) therefore should not be above 550 max, yet Resmed is delivering a whopping >1000 ml and that's only because Resmed algo doesn't care.
So you've gained 50 pounds in 5 months?GearChange wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 10:39 amRemember its all about averages. My minute ventilation is about 8 l/min average which is normal for a larger guy at 6'2" and 250lb in weight.
Not technically accurate either. That's with PS @ 5.5 cmH2O, so it's not entirely "on your own".GearChange wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 5:05 pmBy the way Here's my Vt when I breath on my own at over 99%. It is at less than 650.
Very enlightening (and entertaining), Doctor.

Perhaps you should try being right rather than looking right...

in re: your assessment of appropriate tidal volume and condemnation of the ResMed algorithm which is apparently doing the same thing your Respironics algorithm is.My Tidal Volume (Vt) therefore should not be above 550 max, yet Resmed is delivering a whopping >1000Vt and that's only because Resmed algo doesn't care.

You want to discuss?
Let's discuss.
Explain why you think a tidal volume of 922 ml is "well within the normal range".
Have you in fact had a 50 pound weight gain in the last 5 months?
Explain the contradictions in
First hit is:"Is it normal" for full cessation of involuntary breathing (Central Apnea) to last for periods in excess of 30 minutes?
