Newly diagnosed and need help for a good start
#41
RE: Newly diagnosed and need help for a good start
Titration procedure would have you lift the pressure for the snores. As has been suggested, I would continue to raise the min. If it were my chart, I'd like to see the pressure max, set higher than my 95%, to make sure I'm getting enough pressure needed and give the machine a bit of room. Your CA may continue to settle down as you go. It's a balance.

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.
