RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
Thanks Dave, I'll give a try to increase Ti max to 2.5s from 2.0s.
The odd thing is I feel more tired today despite having no events than the first nights I've used the machine. Might be just psychological.
RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
not necessarily psychological. my 0.0's tend to occur on nights I don't sleep well, meaning lightly with little or no deep sleep. I, maybe everyone (?) get more obstructive events in deeper sleep presumably because of the relative degree our bodies relax at that sleep stage. also, rera & other arousals that don't show up in ahi can leave us feeling unrested.
edit: I read "no events" when I now think you meant "no more events than" so my reference to 0.0 may not apply, but my point is the same, either way.

RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
Yes, by no events I meant 0.0. (yesterday night data shows 0.0 events but today I feel exhausted as usual)
That kind of makes sense that no deep sleep means no events but also no restorative sleep.

RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
probably just that I don't know how to work it but I don't see any images in the first 2 links I clicked on. better to use f12 in oscar to attach charts to your post.

Odd. I've redid the screenshots and re-uploaded to a different service:

It would be better to hit F12 on your PC then using the New Attachment below the post textbox. Link 1 indicates you lost an hour in Ramp that's locked onto pediatric pressure 4. Ramp needs more pressure or turn it off. Maybe you're sleeping too long. 10 plus hours sleep will mess up my sleep/wake pattern.

RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
I believe you said your sleep test was inconclusive. the charts I've looked at are quite good so between the test & charts, it isn't clear apnea or uars is your problem. the thing that stands out to me is the fragmentation. why do you think you wake up at night? the zoomed chart at post #19 isn't definitive but shows hints of periodic limb movement.

RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
Thanks for the replies.
Yes, I am still waiting on doing a proper test study. I was waiting for COVID to be over (lol) but I am just going to move forward now. I am on Mac and I can't use F12 to screenshot. Closer is to do full window screenshots like in post #26. I actually just got off the hospital. I did an allergy to drug named Albendazole that has led to acute kidney failure among other things. I have to still drink ton of water and had to wake up 4-5 times during the night for it. I went ahead and tuff off Ramping. Anything else I can do?

RE: Resmed AirCurve 10 vAuto check settings?
On a Mac you can take OSCAR screenshots by going to File->Take Screenshot.
I can't remember if there is some key combination, but I'm pretty sure the menu item works.
