Question re: creating a report via OSCAR - PaulaO2 - 10-28-2022

So my doc office has a PA who allegedly knows all sorts of stuff about CPAPs. It is my humble (snort) opinion she does not.

However, I need to present her with a report (vs whatever limited data she can get off my A10 screen) since doc wants to go through her vs sleep doc for a problem I may have.

I've tried to do reports before but they are never what I am looking for. I looked through the Wiki and couldn't find anything on reports (maybe I blipped over it?) and I know doing a search here for "report" would get me a whole bunch of stuff to dig through.

I need a report of AHI, types of events, and some others. Not sure yet. Is it possible to gather, say, a week's worth of data and turn it into a pdf/csv/excel? Even if it is 7 pages long? Or a single sheet of data? I don't think the overview page is enough but better than nothin'.

The Daily Summary csv export can do selected days, so a week or a month is no problem. It seems to be tailored for a Respironics report, so there are lots of zero columns. I don't know how to use excell to delete them automatically, I would have to do it by drag and cut. OTOH, if I add a test for DataAvailable before each column, I can do it in OSCAR... It's a fair bit of work to do it right, and it hasn't reached the top of my ToDo list. It will also mung anybody's scripts...

Okay. I see that now. I'll give it a try. I can select the blank ones and delete.


RE: Question re: creating a report via OSCAR - PaulaO2 - 10-28-2022

Is there a way to force certain columns? Like, it gives AHI but gives CA, OA, and H counts. I'd rather have indexes. (whine) do I gotta do math?

It was easy to select the columns I didn't need and hit delete. So not a problem.

Well... it's computable, so it's doable Big Grin

Better add it to the Enhancement list, so we don't forget it.

Well, hello stranger! Try looking at the Statistics screen. In OSCAR 1.4.0, a date range has been added at the bottom. This will provide the values you are looking for (I think).

Trust the users to know how to use the new features!

I'll give that a look in a bit. Need to update first. Downloaded it but got distracted by a shiny squirrel.


RE: Question re: creating a report via OSCAR - pholynyk - 10-28-2022

The shiny ones always get you (and me)!

It kinda does but isn't printable other than screenshot. I can, however, see all the data at once and can manually transfer it.
