Interpreting Data
#1
Interpreting Data
            Finally got OSCAR and I have been working on trying to figure out if my leaks are due to mouth leaks or mask leaks.  The slide from the 4th was when I was using this glue (SleepQ) on my lips and it appears I leaked like a sieve.  I went back to my Knightsbridge Dual Band Strap and the results appear better but I just wanted to get the thoughts of the group.  If I am posting in the wrong area just let me know.  thx

RE: Interpreting Data
Sharp spiky leak episodes are usually mask displacement or seal leaks, while longer sustained leaks, like the one between 4:30 and 5:00 in your first chart are typical of mouth leaks. I don't consider the leaks displayed here as especially serious and more recent charts are actually very good. So your trend is improving significantly.
