Improve stabilize results

Improve stabilize results
Wondering if you can help me stabilize and improve my results. I have a Resmed machine that has cpap bipap and vauto options. I use the Vauto options set at 10-14 with PS of 2. I have tried different settings, but it only gets worse. PS 3-4 worse and increased and decreased ipap and epap but again worse.

Wondering if you can take a look to see how i can stabilize my results as they can swing from 8 to 22. This is the best i have been able to obtain.

Third pic shows same setting but using a ps of 3.4.

Thank you for the help!!!

RE: Improve stabilize results
Yes there is something you can try that has helped some with the centrals.  Use the trigger setting to very high.  In many people - me including - fount using trigger set to very high reduced our centrals.  However, you  may need another type of machine an ASV.  but lets see how you do with the trigger setting.

RE: Improve stabilize results
After you try Stacey's suggestion, if your CAs are still high would you please post a redacted copy of your sleep study?  If needed, that would help us better determine how to help you further.
