Can Oscar recompute daily stats for a user-selection part of a day?

Can Oscar recompute daily stats for a user-selection part of a day?
Don't know if it's a widespread occupational hazard, but my 4+ decades as a computer programmer left me a night-owl (or maybe my inherent night-owl tendencies drew me to programming  Unsure). Even though I'm retired now I still have trouble getting to sleep at night and often sleep until well after dawn in order to get enough sleep.

I've been studying my DS1/DS2 data in Oscar and noticed that on most days the bulk of my AHI occurs in the morning after the sun comes up and it makes me wonder what my AHI looks like if I exclude the post-dawn hours of sleep (see attached image)

I know I could manually count events and calculate what I'm looking for, but I wonder if Oscar might already have a slicker way to do this, such as recalculating statistics when a user selects a subset of the timeline for the current day in the Daily view as I have in the attachment?

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself...A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague."

If your sleep sessions are broken into "bathroom" segments, you can deselect the session at the bottom of the Daily Screen - Detail tab.

Thanks for that information. I generally wake up pre-dawn, if at all, and need to pee so that works some nights.

When I was trying that I noticed this apparent quirk in the data. For the first 40 minutes of the night, when I didn't feel like I slept at all, my DS2 reported the following. There are no events flagged at all, yet my AHI goes up to 4 near the end. How can AHI be > 0 without any events being noticed?

Pay no attention to the AHI graph. It is a "look-pretty" holdover from Sleepyhead and doesn't bring anything to the party. Its reporting has no bearing on your therapy.

AHI is calculate on a per user selection part of a day. look at the top bar on the flow rate graph. it has AHI listed for the current selection.

You have no hypopneas showing on the events chart, are they enabled.

The AHI chart is a 1 hr running average. I suspect you are having hypopneas that are not being shown.

Good call; hypopneas were not enabled. Now they are, and I see where the AHI activity came from.

My subjective experience was that I never fell asleep; as soon as I laid down my nose started getting congested and I eventually got up to tend to that before going back to bed and still not falling asleep.  Not usually a problem. Dont-know
