oscar flow limit
in oscar i can see my flow rate, but not the flow limit that is shown in the oscar wiki guide.  apparently i am having chin tucking.  how do i see the flow limit chart?  "FL" is checked in the little drop-down box at the bottom of the page next to the date. using the current version of oscar.  thanks

RE: oscar flow limit
If you're using the DreamStation the flow limit is just left panel info not an actual graph like from the ResMed.

RE: oscar flow limit
where do i find a chart for Flow Limit that says what is in range, what is slightly out of range, and what is bad?
[for both airsense 11 and dreamstation one]

Same question for reras and rdi.  thanks.

RE: oscar flow limit
There are no official rule for flow limits. We use 95% stat at 0.10 as as where we want to consider reduction or when pressure increases are being driven by flow limits
RDI the same limits as AHI
RERAS, are used to calc RDI (RDI=AHI + RERAS)
