I need a Glossary. - Hanrahan - 07-13-2015

Does the board have a glossary of terms? I need one so I can understand what you experienced people are talking about. Smile

Also, go to "Private Files and Links / LINKS to Members-Only FILES"
There are quite interesting stuff there

Here is one from ResMed http://www.resmed.com/us/en/healthcare-professional/support/glossaries.html

This wiki is great, but I don't find a mention of "leakage." Would someone please direct me? I have over 30 days of compliance at this point, and my leakage is consistently at 28%. Is this mask-specific? Is my goal for leakage to be low and consistent, or should I have another goal? Thanks!

Although the thread I'm linking to deals with Sleepyhead software, it has a good bit on Leaks. Try here: http://www.apneaboard.com/forums/Thread-SleepyHead-Software-Beginner-s-Guide-Questions-Answers-Discussion?pid=73574#pid73574
