RE: New Data to review!
If it were my chart. The min 13.5 is ok for now, but will probably be raised later, if a bit of positional therapy doesn't fix it. You may be chin tucking or rolling on back, because of the cluster of apnea close together. A simple way to check is to buy a soft foam cervical collar for $10, this will keep your airway more open for the night. If it fixes it, there are a few things you can do later.

I'd raise the max to 20 and see where it goes to. You are hitting the max limit too often. It needs to be at least 2cm above the 95% pressure. The machine looking for more pressure may be apnea and also be part of chin tucking or nasal problems?

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.
