how to read cpap data resmed

Sure, I'd be happy to guide you through. Firstly, it is important to note that ResMed devices keep track of a wealth of information about your sleep. Their software, ResScan or AirView, enables you to access and understand this data.

After you've connected your ResMed device to your computer via the appropriate cable, you can open the software. It should automatically detect your device and import the data. You can then navigate to the 'Reports' section to view the collected data.

In the reports, you should pay attention to a few important metrics: AHI (Apnea-Hypopnea Index), leak rate, pressure, and usage hours. The AHI should be under 5, which is considered normal. An AHI above 5 suggests that you should adjust your CPAP settings or consult with your doctor.

A leak rate under 24 L/minute is considered normal for ResMed devices. A higher leak rate suggests that your mask may not be fitted correctly or could be leaking.
