RE: respiration levels
I'd like to see zero RERAs or a very low number under 1. Keep in mind that you don't have the ideal machine for RERAs. RERAs show as a series of flow Limitations that end with an Arousal which is the bad part.

Yes whole numbers until under 5 at least.

And keep an eye on the CA numbers, they could go up with increased pressure.

RE: respiration levels
It seems that they have been under 1 for most of the last month.  Is your recommendation to change machines?  I’ll have to get Doctor to do that.

RE: respiration levels
Got it , thank you. So I’m raising pressure at the lower and upper levels by 1 , i.e. 5 to 6 and 14 to 15?
