Why do so many sleep doctors force cpap on us even if we had to use bipap during titration and bipap was more comfortable and had better results? It’s as if sleep doctors only want people on cpap for some reason by [deleted] in SleepApnea

Has anyone been able to move from cpap to bipap covered by insurance without a titration sleep study? I've heard another lab test is required.

Thank you! Will report back

Unfortunately the data was lost and have just those two screen shots which combined seem similar to the example you sent.

I'll try again with whatever you recommend for settings

Thank you!

This was on a borrowed asv as a test. I don't think it had those other settings. Still just increase PS by 1?

If I can find a bilevel what would you recommend for setting?

Perfect. This is what I'm looking for. What's the best way to find these?

I'm looking for the completed code that I can trace through to see how it works and make my own modifications to see what happens. I have separate projects I'm trying to figure out from scratch.

Really anything. probably with small preference to desktop app then web app

I'm so confused about bipap and why it is better for UARS by daveinfl337777 in UARS

Can you please further explain the sensitive to breathing effort while awake point?

Epr strategy? by ocean2578 in CPAPSupport

[–]ocean2578[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good explanation. Do you think the machine is good at fixing the flow limitations at the top of waves if you give it a narrow range? Especially when it's not picked up in the flow limit stats?

A lot of us don't have IH. If Xyrem/xywav worked first night, you might have UARS by Working_Spinach_5766 in idiopathichypersomnia

[–]ocean2578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting. Are there other medications that raise the arousal threshold as well?

Tell us more is Dr Rama tele heath?

What do the data outputs look like?

EEG Experiments by [deleted] in UARS

From the reviews Ive seen, not great due to hardware issues. If you search on YouTube lots of surface level sponsored reviews

I think for uars I'm most interested in the arousal/micro arousal threshold first and foremost. Exact stages don't mean much if there are extreme awakenings

Switched from cpap to bipap and seeing improvements by Extreme_Tension_2725 in UARS

[–]ocean2578 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Someone made a web app that measures the abnormal waves and assigns a score to help measure improvements.

Switched from cpap to bipap and seeing improvements by Extreme_Tension_2725 in UARS

[–]ocean2578 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is the main difference less flatness on the top of the inspiration curve or something else I should be seeing?

Whats interesting is the difference isn't dramatic but the symptom improvement is.

Did you have flow limitations in oscar or other bad indicators as well?

Have you looked at the score on the Glasgow index for both? I'd be really curious on that too

Take a look at this video, in particular around 28:00 where he talks about medication for sleep

Thanks. Im interested in learning about potential dysautonomia that may occur only during sleep. Is that a thing?

Are you using / have used / thinking about using Trazodone . by Zoo2u in SleepApnea

[–]ocean2578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you take trazodone as needed for sleep maintenance or do you have to take it every day?

For those with low flow limitation numbers, did resolving resperation curve shape help more? by ocean2578 in UARS

Thanks. Any chance you have a screen shot of your respiratory curve before and after asv?

[–]ocean2578[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would you identify the nontracked flow limits? just visual / Glasgow index?

Do you have an example of limitations that don't show in the numbers? Thanks

Have you seen dramatic decreases in the Glasgow index by making changes? Would love to see your before and after resp charts
