This is the data that tells me ASV is your correct machine:
Obstructive 26
Mixed 39
Central 56
ASV criteria is 50% Central or more, and you have about double CA to OA, not including any Centrals that may be included in your 19 Hypopnea.
Only 2 big contraindicating areas, I'm not certain we discussed, CHF or respiratory disease, these are the only reasons I would not steer you to ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV. I don't recall but I think these 2 don't apply to you.
