I'm a bus driver and I find it very hard to schedule the amount of time I need to use this device. It often takes me multiple attempts to sleep with it. I've lied down for an hour without falling asleep, then after a second attempt, I've fallen asleep right away. I keep waking up an hour or two before it's time to wake up, then contemplating whether or not I should go back to sleep with the device. I might go back to sleep right away, but I might also just lie there wide awake until it's time to wake up. It's really hard to use this device on cue, but it's a legal requirement.
when your watching tv or movie, gaming, etc just put it on. when reading just put it on for as long as you like and you'll be surprised that you'll get used to it in time. also what kind of mask you have? that also can make a big difference. i have a p10 mask and a f30i mask as well. trust me once you get the hang of it, you'll be sleeping with it without any issues.
A key reason could also be that you don't have enough pressure. Somehow people think that if your machine is setup to a pressure range of say 5-20, the machine will adapt and provide the right pressure! Guess what, machines are not that efficient, and misinterpret information. Ask your doctor to raise your minimum pressure, and monitor your situation. If he's not involved, and a bum like mine, go to a sleep therapist who could go through your sleep info from the SD card. Hope this helps someone.
In my case is reverse. I use the minimal pressure 4 fixed with a nasal pillow mask. tape my mouth soft tape. I was full mask full automatic 4 to 20 pressure. my AHI without CPAP is 44 Severe. now I obtain below of 1 in AHI each hour. I noticed when the CPAP is in APAP adjusting the pressure itself made me wake up a lot. and use too much pressure without need. I discovered using Oscar APP, and learn read the graphs to adjust it. I am so happy and feel so good with the CPAP now. who invented it is a genius. The sleep clinics put all automatic and that is good to start, you must learn and find what is best for you. The study clinics trust too much in the algorithm of CPAP software, and the software is unable to be proactive, it is reactive, I mean, the CPAP act too late and elevate the pressure more more and keep high and take so long to lower it. all those variations of pressure perturb our sleeps. so you must find a balance between quality sleep and apnea control. for my case the best is a fixed pressure.
Highly recommend folks use an SD card in their machine and load your sleep data into the PC application OSCAR to see muuuuuch more detailed, actionable information
I have had the majority of scores for almost a year at or near 100. Yet my total time of actual sleep has averaged less than 5 hours a night during that time (interrupted). I am a VA patient, and I have had two sleep studies, and I have been on APAP, CPAP, and even tried BiPAP. Now, even with meds, I go entire nights without sleep. I slept more (not much better quality wise) before CPAP therapy. I am done with it after more than 10 months of wearing it every night for 7 plus hours a night. The clinic people say "your numbers are great", which makes sense because I am awake for a good portion of the evening. My AHI is best when I do not sleep at all.
Not to be biased, but I think this particular software is CRAP!! doesn't really tell anyone anything...I want to see O2, Breathing, where am I stopping, starting...don't care about dang points...not a competition, but my health!! Need a lot more info to be remotely useful!!
I had a 96, lowest score this week.I'd certainly say this score has very little relevance to the actual sleep quality I experienced. I'd rate me a 60 tops.
Hi. Often it’s because while you are “asleep” with low AHI, but simply not enough REM. I think it could be low vitamin D. Ask your doctor about this. Here’s a lil video I did on the subject. CPAP Success and the Missing Piece ruclips.net/user/livej54XQxfkyNs?feature=share
I've been using a CPAP just over three weeks now and my score was 91 last night. These scores seem to be mostly for the insurance companies to evaluate compliance. I would have guessed that the missing elements were O2 levels and actual sleep. I got a score of 98 one night and it was actually one of my worst nights. Besides mask leaks, mouth leaks (chipmunk cheeks) are my big problems.
Mouth leaks will totally ruin good sleep. So that would be the first and most important issue. Consider chin strap or different mask all together. Best wishes. Thanks for watching. Many more videos. Search on our channel for mask leak
I have been on Resmed and My AIr since may 29, My Score is between 95 and 100 between 3 and 6 episodes a night. I am still falling asleep in my soup. Up at 5am napping from 10am to 1pm fighting to stay awake by 6pm. Going to bed at 9pm
So it’s been another 8 months, has it getting any better? I’m on day 4, I was exhausted all day like I had no sleep. I scored 97 last night and ahi is under 2.
Im new to this and my first two nights have both been 100 and im still a little tired. The full face mask didnt work so now im on nasal mask, so far so good. Ill see after a week.
Hi Chris. On this score, I bet ResMed wanted to keep it simple by producing a score of up to 100 based solely on CPAP therapy, and not on sleep quality overall. As you mention, their MyAir score does not take into account light sleep, deep sleep, REM sleep, etc. It might be too confusing for the general masses, but they really need a top score of CPAP therapy to be, say 70, and show you the amount up to 70 you get based on CPAP treatment, and then % of that 70...knowing there is another upwards to 30% of other contributing factors than can get you up another 30 points, which they have no way of tracking, for total of 100.
no only that, each CPAP user must learn understand the graphs using example Oscar APP, the curves of inhale and exhale say a lot. , plus the other variables. inclusive need a Oximeter and add to the graphs.
Congrats to u!! Hope its still going well for you! How was u able,weightloss?🎉I hope I can get off it at some point,having alot of issues still exhausted.
@@victoriaortiz6202 But still tired. In 93 they eradicated my pineal gland along with the tumor. They thought it did nothing. Turns out it emits melatonin to aid in sleep and deep sleep. 30 years of this! I'm tired. Considered methamphetamines but not really. I'm off to bed!!!!!!!!
I keep getting a low score, no matter what I do! I tightened my mask, made sure no leak, wore it an hour before sleep and it’s the same result. Which is that I wore it only an hour when I know I slept 7 hours. So frustrating!
Okay…. Something must be broken with my “myAir” app. My score for the last 25+ nights has been 100. That’s never happened in the past?? Any ideas? Thanks for your video
My score was 100 last night and my humidifier was at 5 and I also had it on auto because I get up either once or twice at night to go to use the bathroom and I have to get up around 2;15am to get ready to go to work
Ya old post but.... fighting with my doc over the lack of rem sleep... I ended up in the hospital cause of this......she says my score is great and I am getting sleep, it's my heart or something else... but I'm not getting rem sleep on cpap.. so now every 3 days I don't use it I feel better now tbd.. time will tell....
My score was 91 last night. I think it’s much harder to wake up in the mornings since I started using therapy. I sleep thru the night. I don’t even need to use restroom during the night!
The first year of cpap use I was exhausted. Still exhausted. Got a 100 last night. I'm 43 and I've already had 3 strokes. Sleep apnea can cause strokes. When I was 13 I had a brain tumor on my pineal gland. My pineal gland was eradicated by radiation. They thought the pineal gland does nothing. Turns out the pineal gland regulates your sleep and deep sleep by emitting melatonin. Cpap helps a little!
@@affinityhm I'm well. Lost 50 pounds but still tired. Don't really pay attention to the scores. No strokes in 3 years. Knowing your score is useless as it's already done.
@@affinityhm Just the general leak that comes from a mask. My sleep doctor brought that up too. I had the most leak I've ever had and 0.0 events. I had way more leaks with the full face mask. On a N20 now. Even when I had 0.0 events I'm still wrecked and will lay down up to 5 times. Pretty sure it's my pineal gland being gone. Bummer
I recently started using my resmed airsence 11. My first night, I got a 68 on 5:15 the second night. I had an 82. For the coming weeks, my goal is getting to the 90s and later on the 100s. I need to get used to wearing a mask
67 year old, scorte 89, first 7 nights, av ahi 11.1 per night, 5 hours sleep a night, mask seal good. feeling tired in the morning and during the day.....
Resmed score is way too basic. I get 100 continuously but have to rely on my smart watch for a better sleep data breakdown. My sats drop to the mid 80's now which is better than the mid 60's i was getting before getting my airsense 10. However the machine doesn't cover that vital information. The few nights that i had 90% plus oxygen mostly, I've woken up feeling great. So my tiredness is correlated to my drop in sats for hours at a time during sleep. Machine says i only get 1.1 episodes per hour (down from 36.4 with no breathing from 28 to 145 seconds) so can't explain my sats dropping still low on cpap with so few episodes. My watch breaks down my states of sleep and usually get 1.5 hours of rem but over 3 hours of light and 30 minutes of deep sleep with wakefulness a quarter of the time. I don't bother with the resmed data except to find out the pressure used that night.
My last score is 98, still sleepy, I always woke a couple of times during the night, replacing the mask, changing position, etc. but my therapist told me that it's "normal" because I'm using my cap for less than 2 months, she said it could take a couple of months, up to 6 months, is that right ?
This is how ResMed qualifies for insurance. They're purposely inflating their numbers. I'm new to this by a month in and even this morning I had only one event per hour but I hadn't put in 7 hours and since it was early I put it back on but didn't fully drift off back to sleep. And then all of a sudden. Now I have two and a half events per hour with only. Maybe 20 minutes of extra time? The machine is just making up numbers as it goes and getting things wrong half the time. And what was my score this morning? 100! I still feel like garbage and can already go back to sleep before noon. I also had my follow-up with my sleep doctor who turns out to be a joke and a half. And doesn't even look at the data. He just looks at the ResMed thing because that way every ring go along charging insurance. I asked about getting further evaluated to see if there was any other kind of issue like positional apnea or to find out what the actual collapse is and he just pushed it off back to the machine, trying a different pressure and to go to full CPAP mode to see what happened. He didn't raise it because I said I was having ear popping issues so he's trying to lower it. And yeah my scores were about the same but that's only from one night. Don't trust this app. It's only used for insurance purposes.
I've reached out to resmed , doctor referred. I've reached out to my service provider. No response from either company. All I want is an app PASSWORD RESET. ANY IDEAS WHO SHOULD FIX THIS APP. My 11 model.
That score thing is just a game and to make the insurance companies paying for it happy... What you need to look at is the quality of sleep and breath you get and that score thing do not tell you that.
@@affinityhm I think it did come across ? lol ;) But maybe not clearly enough... Wrote the comment after reading the comments sections. Saw that many seems to be way to much into the score thing and thinking it is not working just because they are not getting full score. Comments sections is sometimes a gold mine for good information :)
so you sleep 7h , and has less of 5 AHI, that is good. people without Apnea by average do not make more of 5 events by hour. so you are in good scenario. my average by hour is between 0.4 to 1.2 usually 0.8 events by hour. more of 5 by hour is not good.
My father o2 lowest o2 is 60 with cpap ....without cpap its 76 % how is it possible ....last night still my father o2 drops to 85 % with cpap....his pressure - 9.2 to 10.2 ....his average pressure is 10.1 ...after seeing your video i raise my father pressure from 9.2 to 9.8 he sudden very uncomfortable and remove mask suddenly ahi is rise ...then i again lower down 9.2 then he sleeps peacefully...what should i do i am so tensed please reply
Could be that although tge apnea is well tested you still aren’t getting enough REM sleep. Check with doctor. Possibly low on certain vitamins necessary for triggering REM like D maybe… see doc.
@@ohgeeesyy with your ahi so low, your apnea is well treated. So almost no apnea with your cpap is great. Deviated septum makes you less likely to tolerate a nasal pillow mask. So I’m guessing you use full face which is perfect so you can breath through nose and or mouth.
I've been on Cpat for a year I've been tracking my score I've went from 100% up and down last night was very poor I take it on and off feeling warm and clostraphotic
The clinician set the airflow pressure I've set it to myself in the setting like warming up the mask to cooling. I could be awake a lot at night before I feel sleepy. I do get sleepy having sleep apnea throughout daytimes it does lower when I can ueit. I've svt and Af and many heart ablations
If its 21 events all night, and assuming you slept around 8 hours thats wonderful! Thanks for watching! (My math is 8 hour of sleep and 21 events all night// 21 divided by 8 = 2.6 // so AHI of 2.6 is great as any AHI under 5 is good) Thanks for watching!
I gave up on this video after nine minutes of you just running your mouth and never getting to the point. If people need to know something, it's better to start with useful information. Then, you can talk about Marines and scores and "pop quizzes," but you should start the video by answering the question in the title of whatever video you are making. After that, you can talk about army guys or whatever. however you seem like a nice guy and like you lagetamitly whant to help so ill thank you for that.
@@bigdaddy5948 That is weird. maybe you remember your dreams more due you apnea wake up you in the middle of the R.E.M. ? and you confused with more apnea more R.E.M.

Deviated septum makes you less likely to tolerate a nasal pillow mask. So I’m guessing you use full face which is perfect so you can breath through nose and or mouth.
I've been on Cpat for a year I've been tracking my score I've went from 100% up and down last night was very poor I take it on and off feeling warm and clostraphotic
The clinician set the airflow pressure I've set it to myself in the setting like warming up the mask to cooling. I could be awake a lot at night before I feel sleepy. I do get sleepy having sleep apnea throughout daytimes it does lower when I can ueit. I've svt and Af and many heart ablations
My score was 95 last night. Marsha
It was 100🎉
My score was 95.
Last night I was 95 with 21.6 events.
If its 21 events all night, and assuming you slept around 8 hours thats wonderful! Thanks for watching! (My math is 8 hour of sleep and 21 events all night// 21 divided by 8 = 2.6 // so AHI of 2.6 is great as any AHI under 5 is good)
Thanks for watching!
Depends. I was asking him was is all night or per hour…
Whats missing in the amount of sleep your getting\
100 feels like 90.
Thank you. I’m going to calculate an average of all comments later. Much appreciated.
98 but feels like 70
Thank you. I’m going to calculate an average of all comments later. Much appreciated.
I gave up on this video after nine minutes of you just running your mouth and never getting to the point.
If people need to know something, it's better to start with useful information. Then, you can talk about Marines and scores and "pop quizzes," but you should start the video by answering the question in the title of whatever video you are making. After that, you can talk about army guys or whatever.
however you seem like a nice guy and like you lagetamitly whant to help so ill thank you for that.
About 9:00 is when it gets really good! Thanks for the comment. Please hang in there. I promise it gets better.
@@affinityhm why do you waste nine minutes to make a good video?
Yeah. Higher apnea events equal rem sleep
Not if your cpap is used effectively.
I've just noticed that when I dream the apnea events are higher
@@bigdaddy5948 That is weird. maybe you remember your dreams more due you apnea wake up you in the middle of the R.E.M. ? and you confused with more apnea more R.E.M.
Need oxygen.
100
Because myair is a joke
