I just wanted to double-check the pressure, because that chart says 10-20?
Do you have data from when you were using the other mask?
It's entirely possible that it's simply that this mask isn't as comfy and you're sleeping less well.
It does look like you had a small positional issue, where you had the cluster of OAs right before the pressure ramped up and you woke up. Was that what woke you? Or were you awake for a while before you stopped the machine?
I also notice that you have a fair few leak "spikes" - while this isn't really a problem therapy-wise, it can also be enough to disturb you too, which might leave you feeling less well-rested potentially.
It would be interesting to see where exactly your numbers are raised - do you always have those centrals or are they new, for example? Which kind of events are now more common to have raised your values, basically. If you have the older data too, with your usual mask, that might give us some idea of what's changed.
Thank you!
You are absolutely right. I changed the pressures for that night to 10-20, to try and see if it made a difference. Thank you for catching that.
The mask I believe is less comfy, but I am quickly getting used to it. However, I am continuing to struggle with this.
Regarding the leak spikes, I agree with you, they are an issue. This is what is most bothering me from the Dreamwear, which I did not experience with the F30i. But I'm learning how to use the mask correctly and I believe this is improving.
Interestingly, after reading the forum for a while, yesterday I decided to lower my pressures to a minimum of 8. I believe it helped to some degree. Definitely less aerophagia, so that's good.
What do you mean about raised numbers? To be honest, I am just starting with OSCAR so there is a lot I still don't understand.
Thank you again for your input!

Thanks for posting your charts. I see you posted 3 charts for one night: that way you will use up your allocated data quickly, it's also a lot of work.
is a must read. Read about the what charts to include and the magic F12 button.
When you line everything up on one chart we can more easily see what's what.
Remember to right click the Chart label and hit the Pin button. That way things will stay where you want them.
If you get rid of the pie chart we can see all the things we need to see under the Machine Settings etc.
If you on a windows machine with a mouse with scroll button: click in left pane at Machine settings, hold down the Control key and scroll the scroll button to help fit everything, esp if you are on a small sreeen or laptop.
Keep posting, the experts will chip in soon enough!
Thanks! This is a very good link and info, I will follow those instructions from now on.
Appreciate it!
