help reading Oscar data from my bipap - outdoor - 12-19-2022

I've been using a bipap since 2016.  I have struggled with poor mask fit do the way my face is shaped and routinely have mask leakage that disrupts my sleep.

Can anyone tell me looking at the attached pics why I might be having so many apnea or clear air way events?

If I turn the pressure up anymore I get even more leaks then at present.   Thanks.

The tight clustering of obstructive events, in your case I suspect the UA are obstructive, are most likely obstructive. Typically from tucking your chin. Read about the soft cervical collar in my signature.

Also try a min pressure of 5 or 6band see if that feels better.
