[CPAP] Beginning My Journey and a Big thank you
#61
RE: Beginning My Journey and a Big thank you
OK ... I have saved 40 days of data on my SD card but the information makes NO sense, the AHI section is flat-lined, my daily sleep report sent from my machine to my laptop indicated apnea episodes every night, what am I NOT understanding here?

I don't know what happened to the data on the summary screen.

Put up the chart 'daily' or whatever data from sleepyhead or your machine screen on what your daily numbers are.
I doubt your current cpap setting of 5.2cm is going to work for you. I would guess it's a matter of increasing the pressure by 1cm at a time till the obstructive apneas are within range. Then fine tune.

For auto-cpap, from machine data or software. You can set the min pressure 1 or 2cm below 95%. Or clinicians commonly use the maximum or 95% pressure for fixed pressure CPAP, this can also be used for min pressure.

Looking at your chart your Machine is a "ResMed Airsense 10 CPAP"  you should change your profile to indicate which model of the airsense you have.


Be aware that this model does not provide detailed data.

Thanks ajack ! the DAILY option shows a sad face/frown with a message that it's not available as far as an option.

What has me completely puzzled is how come the "sleep report" I get sent to my computer indicates the number of apnea episode per hour each night but the data on my SD card shows "0" throughout. from my start date until last night in the AHI section of the report? I assume the data is that there have been NO apnea episodes, which is true, the daily sleep report or the data on my SD card?

Sorry, but I'm apparently not having as smooth sailing with this machine data collection which has me not knowing if I'm having ANY apnea episodes at all ?

I tried to attach the 40 days of data collected but for whatever reasons it's not sending the data to "screenshots", I have no idea where it's going to when I click the option to SAVE?

Thanks for responding bonjour !

I'm at a loss as to what "model" you mean? I look at my machine and there is only a label reading Airsense 10 autoset.

Thanks

There is a Resmed Airsense 10 which doesn't do data, and a Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset that collects data.

Thanks Mogy !

Yes, I have the airsense 10 autoset but I cannot figure out why the data shows 0 in the AHI column of the report from what was collected on the SD card?

Make sure all Event Flags are active (Green) in the dropdown box in the lower left of the Daily graphs.  Also, look in File -> Preferences -> Events Tab and make sure they are also selected.

Thanks for the reply Crimson Nape !

On my machine the FLAGS tab is inoperable, I'm attaching what I see after loading data.
