Why not get your cpap therapy effective so you don't need O2?dnthomas wrote:Been on CPAP for about 8 years. Recently had a new one night sleep study and got some new equipment and doc put me o an O2 bleed in. Continuous flow set on 2. Certainly been a change for the better. Wanted to try a setting of 3 and thought I would ask if this could cause a problem. From my research it seems at those low levels it should not be a problem. Thoughts?
O2 + CPAP = Oxygen poisoning?

Re: O2 + CPAP = Oxygen poisoning?
Have you looked at your stats? Is suspect that your still experiencing Apneas. A larger concentration of oxygen doesn't help much if you're not taking it in!
