I kept the min EPAP at 6, because most of the time I am laying on the side and pressure is enough at 6.
Max EPAP is at 10 at the moment, but I believe that this is still not enough.
When I lay on my back there is lots of snore and flow limits.
The EPAP increases to 10 and stayed there for nearly 30 minutes because of the snore and flow limits.
I am going to increase max. EPAP and find a way not to lay on my back.

Hi Hermann,
Looks like your median PS is around 5 and your 95 percentile PS is around 6.
I suggest there is probably no need to let PS go as high as 15, which might be causing a lot of air swallowing.
I suggest reducing Max PS to 10 or 11. The spikes in PS above 10 may be during obstructive apneas, when the machine may max out PS to the highest PS can go and still not manage to open an already-collapsed airway (but could be causing excessive air swallowing).
