First try at posting stats for review

RE: First try at posting stats for review
One month follow-up:

AHI numbers are consistently <1.

The other night I got a 0.1 AHI. That means I had 1 event all night.

AHI = (apneas + hypopneas)/hours.

I average just under 7 hrs/night, so 1/7= 0.14, or AHI 0.1.

at 7 hrs:
2 events would be AHI = 0.3.
3 is 0.4
4 is 0.6
5 is 0.7
6 is 0.9
7 is 1.0

I'm consistently having < 7 events per night.

I think AHI <= 5 is "treated"? At 5, that would be 35 per 7 hrs.

Thanks again for the tips.

Well-done   Looks like you've arrived at your sweet spot.  

Remember, your readings will vary from night to night.  I can go from .3 to 1.3 with an occasional 0.0.  

Go by how you feel everyday.  A low AHI doesn't always tell the whole story.
