Note how you now feel, are you having any difficulty breathing, is it hard to breathe. It is important to note your comfort.

RE: Too many clear airway events, need help
I guess it is because that I made a mistake two days ago, I changed the pressure of 6~13 and PS of 4 directly to the pressure of 6 and PS of 0, probably can not adjust well.
I feel last night(min/max pressure=5) was better because I didn't wake up in the middle of the night like before.

RE: Too many clear airway events, need help
Let's take a few days here then.
As you have noted, we have substantially reduced the Central Apneas with very little impact to obstructive apnea. We/you need to determine if you want/feel comfortable with these settings or do we/you need to pursue another course of treatment such as the ASV mentioned above. Please be aware that it is common for your AHI (CAI) to vary nightly and by a great amount, only time will tell us that. We need a point to stop making adjustments and I think this might be it.

My that looks nice. Any difficulty? can you easily use these settings for very long times (years?)

RE: Too many clear airway events, need help
Didn’t feel any difficulty when I sleep under this pressure, will keep the pressure for a few days and see how it goes.

You need at least 2 weeks
