The sleep study....
His 02 sats went down into the low 70.
The sleep doctor says that his sleep apnea might be a factor as well.
My episodes with AFib became more.
That the apnea is/was the cause of AFib but they can't know for sure.

I just upgraded to a ResMed Autoset, so I now have efficacy data. On my first night it indicated AHI=5.8, AI-3.2, CI=3.2. If I'm interpreting that correctly, it would say that I have 3.2 Central Sleep Apnea events per hour, no Obstructive Sleep Apnea ...

In my case....
In order to "really" be an apnea, you have to have a drop in blood O2 levels or an "EEG arousal." The CPAP can't apnea.
That your CPAP machine can't really detect an apnea, it can only detect your breathing.

I don't know if this is the right forum for this, I thought IMHO was for medical questions. Either way, apnea runs in my family. My dad has a CPAP and my younger brother has trouble breathing at night (although he hasn't gone in for a sleep test yet)....

If you....
If you do indeed have apneaI have sleep apnea.
You can't: : You can't just get a CPAP and have it work for you out of the box.

I needed to catch up.
