Leak Rate Threshold
What is an acceptable % of time above Leak Rate Threshold (based on Sleepyhead data)?

RE: Leak Rate Threshold
You should strive to keep your leaks under 24 l/m, anything over this amount will compromise the machines ability to treat your apneas. If you are exceeding this once and while for a short duration, I would not be too worried. Good Luck

RE: Leak Rate Threshold
Ok thanks. I've been using my machine now for just over 200 days and my % of time above Leak Rate Threshold averages at 0.27% so that's acceptable?

You might be better served posting some sleepy head reports so that members can see your enrire picture, and give you a more precise answer
