RE: Positional Apnea Problems
With a median inhale pressure of 15+, I would increase minimum from 10 to 13.

RE: Positional Apnea Problems
Well,
I have EPR at 3. I've found a set up that keeps me off of my back. I've attached the last three nights OSCAR graphs. The first was with a 2.5 soft collar. The last two were with a 3in soft collar. I'm not sure what is going on. I've found a flatter pillow, but it is out gassing right now. I hope to be able to try it soon. I'm not sure why the 3in is doing worse than the two in collar. Both fit vertically. I can lower my chin less with the 3in. Could I have made it too tight when I fastened it? I'm also not sure what's going on with the flow limit. 95% is 0.18, 0.20, and 0.27. Any insight would be appreciated. Greg

I'm stumped. I changed the minimum pressure to 12 and last night I used the Futuro adjustable collar. I had it as high as I could. I also wore a sleep noodle belt and had some thing on my side that prevented me from rolling onto my back. I don't see any additional improvement. I'm still getting lot's of OA's and Hyponeas. I'm not sure what to try next.
