RE: Help with s-9 Vpap in S mode
Download OSCAR and post a daily screen shot the resscan data does not show us what we need to know. But based on the event distribution more EPAP is required in S mode.

Thanks for the suggestion of oscar. What a difference good software can make. Heres a picture from the last night I used my machine. Havent messed with it since...
Thanks again for taking time to look at my data. Also I have another question if you dont have sleep apnea can the machine cause them?

I do know that for a lot of PAP users, treatment emergent central apnea can occur. In that context, yes the machine can cause apnea events.

The Epap needs to be raised try a min Epap of 4 to reduce the obstructive Apnoea

RE: Help with s-9 Vpap in S mode
Your settings are EPAP 3.0 and IPAP 7.0. I agree with Jaswilliams you need higher pressure to deal with the OA events. Increase EPAP and IPAP by 1-cm until the events are controlled the next changes are 4/8 then 5/9. I have rarely seen such low pressure work with obstructive apnea.
My "hunch" was assuming your pressure and pressure support were higher and resulted in CA events, so i was way off, but that's why we want to see some data first. Assuming works about as well as your current low pressure.

That's OK, we'll wait till you're feeling better then we send you the bill. Then you'll feel sick again. We need big diesel truck Ford F-350 and travel trailer payment money. Probably enough for a shiny Airstream!

If you haven't set the "Trigger" to Very High, I suggest that you do.
