[CPAP] A couple C-S events
#1
Question 
A couple C-S events
Hello all, just had a couple blips last night looking like Cheyne-Stokes. Anything to be concerned about?

   

   

Yes, I know it's a DS (it will be replaced next week), and yes I know the starting pressure is 4.

RE: A couple C-S events
if the green area is periodic breathing, it isn't punctuated by ca events that would indicate possible csr. if the pink area is variable breathing, you have the ca but not the sinusoidal waveform that would indicate possible csr.

I'm not an expert & I don't know much about pr machines, but imo, fwiw, that's not csr.
  Shy   I have no particular qualifications or expertise with respect to the apnea/cpap/sleep related content of my posts beyond my own user experiences and what I've learned from others on this site. Each of us bears the burden of evaluating the validity and applicability of what we read here before acting on it.

I agree with sheepless. The episode is brief, isn't punctuated by CAs, and doesn't have the right shape. You clearly woke up a little before 2:33, and you may well have been awake the whole time until your breathing settled down about 5 minutes later.

IMHO without question this is not CSR. Keep an eye on it and if episodes are longer we need to review them again.
