RE: Apnaes: difference between Central / Obstructive ?
Hello to all of you,
It was exactly on the day today, two years ago that I got my first CPAP to suppress my apneas. I am really very pleased about the help. I received in this thread to get everything tuned and tweaked with, finally excellent results. So this message is all about giving you a big thank you and ti wish you all a very happy end of the year and a good start for the new one! The final settings I use are the following: MODE ASVAuto EPAP Min. 5,8 EPAP Max. 7,2 AI Min. 4,0 AI Max. 9,2 I usually spend 5-6 hours with the Reasmed and 1 or 2 with my wife LOL Following is a typical night's sleep : ![[Image: ressmed oscar.png]](https://cd-classique.com/img/ressmed oscar.png)

RE: Apnaes: difference between Central / Obstructive ?
Results with your CSPacewave ASV shows good control of events and your respiratory volumes look very good; however the machine is very active in providing machine-triggered breaths. As a result many breaths are at or near the max PS. I think we spent quite a bit of time optimizing your maximum PS and that seems to be working fine. I don't recall if we tried lower PS-Min, which is currently set to 4.0. A lower PS min might reduce your need for higher PS breaths by maintain a better CO2 balance. I'm not sure you need a change, but have you tried PS 3.0?

RE: Apnaes: difference between Central / Obstructive ?
Thank you Sleeprider.
Yes, I also noticed all the activity but did not realize that maybe it could be reduced even more. I made the changes a week ago. Lowering the pressure has done some good and I suddenly had a very rare deep sleep last night. Now I am wondering if some more tweaking might be useful. Strange thing is that almost every night this period around three in the morning is the most unsteady one.
