Optimizing BiPap settings
After a rough few months with my fixed pressure CPAP (13cm H20) with many obstructive and central apneas, getting a new sleep study, trying in vain to get full face masks to work (I"m a mouth breather required to use a chin strap) , I feel like I've finally found a sweet spot. Woke up this morning feeling refreshed ! I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions for tweeks to my settings. Specifically I'm a little unclear about pressure support. If I increased it slightly might it help
eliminate these end of night centrals ? Also just recently added an antibacterial filter and am curious about how that changes machine performance since it is a machine setting. I'm hoping the filter will help with my tree pollen issues. TIA for your assistance.
