I have a Dreamstation Bi-PAP autoSV. I've been taking infrared video and also wearing a Alice PDx home sleep study monitor in order to be able to evaluate scoring. It's very clear that the Dreamstation is scoring many events when I'm awake re-positioning myself in bed - everything from Snoring to Flow Limitations to Hypopneas to Central Apneas.


Very interesting!  Thanks for the info!
