Hi,
I have posted in a different thread but haven't received any responses so I thought I would try a new thread. I have been using a borrowed ResMed Elite so that I can track my leaks and apneas. My leaks seem minimal but there are apneas, both AI and HI. My question is, do the numbers displayed mean the number of apneas for the whole night or are they an average per hour? Does the leak number mean a percentage of time like per hour or all night? This is what I have recorded so far:
4/11 Leak 0.00
Total AHI 7
AI 4.6
HI 2.4
4/12 Leak 0.02
AHI 5.6
AI 2.3
HI 3.3
4/13 Leak 0.06
AHI 7.6
AI 3.8
HI 3.8
4/14 Leak 0.00
AHI 6.6
AI 3
HI 3.6
4/15 Leak 0.00
AHI 3.5
AI 1.0
HI 2.5
4/16 Leak 0.04
AHI 11.3
AI 7.0
HI 4.3
I'd really appreciate some help on this because I actually am sleeping longer hours without having to get up but still feel very tired. I was blaming it on mask leaks but apparently that's not the problem When I was titrated at the sleep clinic I had no apneas when they put me on the machine. I have gained about four pounds since then.
Thanks much.
Grandma
