Leak rate is 20% of your score and events rate is 5%. How many hours you sleep is 70%. But if your events are high, the longer you sleep the more oxygen deprived so why isn't events rate a higher % of the total score?
Airsense adjusts pressure and checks events. If you're leaking from your mouth AS could have a harder time maintaining pressure and then AHI would go up. If you're leaking around the mask then easier for AS to adjust the pressure and AHI would stabilize. As mentioned, changes in body positions can cause changes in this dynamic. A move from back to side might increase leaking and destabilize pressure - AHIs would go up. Minor variations in leakage and pressure should be within the range that the AS can adjust but major changes might take longer or be out of range.
