VAuto Pressure Chart

Post by Jtg073 » Fri Aug 18, 2023 2:30 pm

I have my VAuto set to the VAuto mode (Max IPAP 20, Min EPAP 7, and PS 3). My Oscar chart since beginning VAuto shows a flat line all night for the EPAP and IPAP. EPAP 7, and IPAP 10. It doesn’t go up or down. Isn’t the purpose of a VAuto is that it’s supposed fluctuate the EPAP and IPAP within the range you selected as necessary? Is that a problem with my machine?

I would upload a picture but apparently I keep doing it wrong.

It will only change the pressure if it senses a need to do so. The question is how is your AHI and how well are you sleeping?
