 Centrals and Mixed
Hi RocsFan!
Say, your AHI was 136, so you had like 500 events during the night? With reduced sleep as well?
The C & M's are probably a result of the arousals accompanying the apneas, so see what happens after the CPAP titration.
For some light reading on centrals, here's a thread from the pediatric section, but the stuff on centrals is still pertinent.
A mixed in your case probably results from a post-arousal central, meanwhile you obstruct, so it turns into an obstructive. You are gonna feel soooooo good after CPAP.
