Looking for help reducing AHI - theghawk - 01-25-2023
Hi - I am looking for some help reducing my AHI. I have just started collecting some data in OSCAR and I am now trying to play with my own settings / getting control over my own treatment. I am not sure of my level of success with CPAP. I mainly started using it in order to eliminate snoring.
I have a Dreamstation 2. It is set in AutoCPAP mode with a Min of 7 and a Max of 12. I have attached my most recent day of data. You can see my AHI is 3.75 and I tend to hover between 3.5 and 4.5.
My flex level is "A-Flex" level 2. I am not sure what playing around with this setting will do but I've noticed most posts indicate I should keep it at 2.
I can see in my daily pressure graph that I sometimes hit the max of 12. Should I be increasing it?
I am using a Resmed P10 mask.
Appreciate any advice in advance! Thank you.
