maybe something else is waking you up...... sometimes my nasal pillow, window unit is keeping the room cool, I start to roll on my back and the ball nudges me, etc.... not really tired when I go to bed.

The last 3 nights. Any suggestions?

you have to open the flow rate chart to 2 minute segments

I don't think I did it right last time.  Could you tell me how to do this?

[sheepless]

one way is to go to daily tab/events tab and move the view size slider at bottom left to 2 minutes.

I don't remember but after all these pages in this thread you must have tried high or very high trigger sensitivity setting to see if it reduces your ca? how about reducing ps a bit, alone and in conjunction with raising epap min a bit if oa increases? your ahi is looking about as good as one could hope for so if you're still feeling bad, you need to dig deeper. sleep hygiene, cognitive behavioral therapy, scrutinize your charts at a 7-10 minute scale to look for periodicity and 2 minute scale to look for signs and patterns of sleep disordered breathing causing arousals and wake ups (although your last 3 charts show you kept the mask on for about 9 hours each night. I'd give a lot to get even 5 or 6 hour uninterrupted sessions). also try keeping a daily journal noting anything and everything that might have an impact on sleep along with how you feel.

Did I do this right?

[optimalsleep]

yes..... can you find any that have normal oscillations before and after the event?

if zooming on a flagged ca is what you wanted, then you got it!

wait for others to interpret. I wonder if some might say they're oa, given the leading inhale. I'm inclined to believe the machine flag most of the time but I'm no expert.
