Thanks for the reply wiredgeorge, the CPAP machine is on a prescription after a sleep study and separate titration study. The prescription is currently being modified for pressure by my doctor - I have to wait for that. I understand and agree your comments that seal and AHI are critical measurements I just wondered why AHI in particular is given such a low weighting by ResMed. BTW, my use has been 7.5 -8.5 hours per night, with no misses. My Mask seal measurements are described as "acceptable" by my equipment provider.
I'm 2 weeks into use of a ResMed CPAP machine and still adjusting the variables (currently increasing pressure). I do not understand the rationale for the ResMed dashboard scoring and wonder if anyone can help. The reason for starting the treatment is sleep apnea, the primary measure of this is AHI (events per hour). This primary measurement is only given a 5 weighting out of total 100 points on the ResMed score. I'm still getting readings for AHI of over 20 per hour which gets a zero score which makes little difference on my total score of around 89, described by ResMed as "Great Results" but the treatment has failed so far when looking at AHI. How do I reconcile these contrary scoring methods.
