New to the CPAP - Presssure Settings

[MaZeNsMz]

Hi there

First of all, thank you for this forum, when I started reading some of the threads, I stopped feeling lonely in the fighting of the monster called Apnea.

long story short, I have been diagnosed with 15.7 AHI at one of the nights I got average quality sleep.

I have received the Resmed Airsense 10 CPAP, but I was told to visit the technician after 3 days to setup the machine.

I wasn't able to wait, I did my own research and I setup the machine over three nights.
mainly I did the following:
pressure min 5.0
Pressure max 14.0
EPR tried 1 and 3, I stayed at 3.
humidity 5 and 6, I found 6 is the sweetest spot.
My AHI so far 0, 0.8 and 0.3.

I feel very energetic during day, not like earlier days.

I started performing Sleep Data Analysis on Oscar and ResScan, and I see the following:
1. The pressure keeps increasing and decreasing over the night following flow limitations. It never exceeded 9.X.
2. In the second night I had a lot of flow limitations and ununiform breathing (flow rate).


The question, do I need to visit the CPAP technician?

Thanks.

Hi MaZensMz

I can see this was a year ago, how did you do?
Are you in the uk, I ask because I didn’t think that you could do all of those settings on your own?
it’s very good that you managed to do it and it works so well.
what is Oscar and ResScan, I presume the second is something from ResMed.

Is it sorted now?
