[CPAP] Mask pressure
#1
Mask pressure
Hi there!

I'm a newbie with CPAP fro Sweden, have been using it for about 2 weeks now and slowly getting more used to it. I've tried a couple of masks, but ended up with the AirFit N30i with a nose cradle mask.
I'm having some problems with the fitting, and leaking, but I'm trying different adjustments, so hopefully I can get over that!
Started with a nasal mask, but that had the tube coming out in front, and that didn't work for me at all.
So, this night I experienced quite a lot of apne, and when I checked the Oscar data, I found that the "mask pressure" and the Apnea  looked like the attached image.
Anyone can explain what happens to the mask pressure during the apnea incidents?
