AHI is ok so?

Post by Astrophytum » Mon Oct 11, 2010 3:30 am

Hi,

since 4 days I have my Resmed S9 Autoset, H5i and ClimateLine.

I use Rescan 3.11 to the read the data from SD-card.


I have this data, Median from 4 nights:

AHI: 1.1
Leak Median: 0.0 (95. Perzentile: 7.2, Maximum: 20.4)
Pressure Median: 5.5 (that's ok)


My Question ist, is AHI & Leakage Good or Bad?


Regards,
Astrophytum

AHI is wonderful! Anything under 5 is acceptable. Leak...Max leak is a bit high, but otherwise it's ok. You are doing really good, keep up the good work!
Now the big question...how do you feel?

Hi Brenda,
yes, max. leak is high,I have removed the mask repeatedly to correct the head bands in the first 2 nights. I think thatswhy the high max. leak.

How do I feel?

Great! When I wake up in the morning the last years I was tired. Now I'm feeling rested. In the last years every afternoom I MUST go to bed to sleep some hours...otherwise I would be asleep from fatigue.

Now I'm fresh all the day!

Great!
