SleepyHead question
#1
SleepyHead question
I have a question about the SleepyHead software. When I have imported the data from my SD card and I'm viewing the page where the colorful graphs are located, there is a summary to the left. For last night mine has this information:

AHI 1.3

large leak 0.00
clear airway 0.65
unclassified apnea 0.00
obstructive 0.26
hypopnea 0.39

Also in the colored round circle just below the above information half of that circle is purple and has CA, a fourth of the circle is dark blue and has H, and finally the other fourth of the circle is light blue and has OA.

Since I really want to learn how to interpret my own data and not bother you kind folks, could someone explain it to me? Thanks in advance.

Almost forgot, do nasal pillows that need to be replaced alter the cpap data to any great degree?

RE: SleepyHead question
GrammaBear, the 4 figures below total up to the AHI, they could be slightly out probablt due to rounding.
The pie chart is again a break up of these figures just in chart form rathet than text so the CA is your Clear Airway, H is Hypopnea and OA is your Obstructive figure.
Hope this helps
clear airway 0.65
unclassified apnea 0.00
obstructive 0.26
hypopnea 0.39
Total = AHI 1.3
