New User - Help Optimizing Therapy

[Jakeb24]

Hello, 

New user here looking for some help adjusting my therapy. Currently used for about 1 week and struggling with long wake ups and poor/little sleep. 

Airsense 10
Dreamwear Full Face Cushion

Attached my charts, any other info I will be happy to provide. 

Thanks!

I suggest giving the following settings a try.

Min pressure 7
Max pressure 15
EPR 2 full-time
No ramp (unless absolutely needed as you get no real therapy during ramp)
Smart-start on or off (personal choice)

Depending on how the flow limitations respond we may need to increase EPR to 3, but let’s see how you do with it at 2. I think your CA’s are TECA (treatment emergent central apnoea’s), so not worried about them.

If you have a sleep study, please post the summary and redact any personal information.

Attached last nights data. I would say this is better than the night before. Still only about 5 hours sleep. But more deep sleep than last night.
