hypopnea and setting Question
Experts

I noticed that almost all my hypopneas occured at the starting pressure of 5 .
Should I increase to 5.5 or 6 to start?

My minimum pressure is 8.6... starting pressure is around 7 before ramping up.

I always try and use the lowest pressure for comfort. Try 5.5 and if it doesn't work or doesn't feel comfortable boost it to 6.
