Curious, why limit range on APAP?
#11
RE: Curious, why limit range on APAP?
Silly sounding I guess, but like the seats and stereo in the crossover or car, they're adjustable for a reason. Seats are set to be comfortable for the individual sitting on it. Stereo sounds get adjusted to taste or feel.

Minimum pressure might not feel right, same with max. My therapy when on the ASV a few year ago, all settings were subject to adjustment to maximize comfort and therapy effectiveness.

Any CPAP type machine should be set for the user. Even full default might be the right answer. Just be willing to turn the dials and find what is that best setup.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.
