Leak and other assessment - CanberrySleeper - 04-02-2022 Hi Recently, I changed my pressure to 17+ . It has been pretty good with my AHIs. Almost zero. I was feeling very refreshed as well. However, last couple of days feeling a bit tired. Not sure why. I am on Airsense 10, Resmed N20 Nasal mask. I have been mouth taping using medvance tape and also using the Seatec chin strap. I would like advice on the following: 1. The leaks from yesterday. I believe there are mouth open leaks after about 4AM. Is that correct ? What are the leak types here in the screen shot ? 2. Is using Seatec chin strap causing any issues ? I seem to have mild aerophalgia (no burping etc, but some stomach pain). Any thoughts on addressing it ? 3. I am aiming for zero AHI - is that the goal ? or am I ok with a higher AHI goal (0.5 or 1?). I can reduce pressure a bit if the AHI goal is increased. 4. will full face mask help me in any way ? I have Resmed F20 e already Your help is appreciated. thanks CanberrySleeper RE: Leak and other assessment - staceyburke - 04-02-2022 Welcome. No 0 is not the goal it is feeling well. And your settings hate quit high. I would try lower numbers which should help with the stomach pain. I would suggest a couple changes. Autoset Min 10 EPR FULL TIME 3 Leave the max where it is See how you feel, I think it will improve how you feel. |
