what is a "mask event"?

Post by pandatx » Sat Apr 20, 2013 6:45 pm

Just looking at my ResMed data and noticed that if I put my cursor over one of the bar graphs it tells me how many "mask events" there were that night. But, what does that mean?

Thanks a bunch!

You know what? I think it just means how many times you used the mask that day..

Therapy usage with therapy start and end times and pauses in therapy
Each time you start and stop machine count as 1 mask event

what is a "mask event"?
