Resmed S9 presure seting
I have a Resmed S9 Elite set to a pressure 14. Last night was the first time I used it and my results were
Hyponia .83 , Clear Airway .69 Obstructive .55 AHI 2.07 Large leaks 3.47 .
I also have a Resmed S8 Autoset Vantage that when set for 12 to 16 reports I have a AHI of 5.2 and a
95% pressure of 13 .
Now for the fun part over the past year using a Dreamstation auto my Ahi has risen from about 4 to 8.8
along with a rise in the 95% pressure rising from 16 to 19. So I think my darn Dreamstation was just
defective . Oh my Dr. has ordered me a new machine but in this case he ordered a Bipap so we could go
to higher pressure but if my data from using the S8 and S9 is right I don't need a very high pressure after all.
But back to the S9 if I tweak the pressure I wonder if I should go a little higher or lower.
