My Journey from BiPAP Auto to Aircurve 10 Vauto
#41
RE: Newbe First time using BiPAP Auto mode
Yes I did it as soon as I saw your response.  Thank you, does it look any better.  I don't feel it but maybe it will take a couple of nights.

RE: Newbe First time using BiPAP Auto mode
It helps to see the left column with the statistics for comparison, but based on your previous chart at PS 4.5, your flow limitation went from 12 to 6 events with PS 5. Hypopnea also went from 8 to 4 events. So a 50% improvement in event rate significant, but we don't much else about respiration volumes. Clear airway increased by 2 events which is not unusual for increased PS. I think keeping these settings for a while makes sense to verify the results stick.

Thank you for the help.  I will be getting a VAUTO in a couple of days, so I'll post that result and ask for help again.  I appreciate your input!

UPS just sent a text.  Delivery of my new VAUTO tomorrow (Monday).  Do I start a new thread with the new machine or keep posting to this one.

RE: Newbe First time using BiPAP Auto mode
I ditto keeping it here. This way there's background to rely on for the new machine settings when it begins.

RE: Newbe First time using BiPAP Auto mode
If you do start a new thread, it will help to post a link back to this thread and perhaps include some charts that summarize the issues you want to resolve, and that show your settings. Keeping it here is also fine. If you want a title change like My Journey from BiPAP Auto to Aircurve 10 Vauto, we can do that too.
