I have been on Cpap with a pressure of 12 since January. I was recently changed to bilevel because of frequent awakenings. The pressure is 4/10.
I never had a data capable machine before and the DME never showed me these features, although it is easy to figure out. I go to my pulmonologist next week and want to ask the right questions. My AHI is usually between 6-14. and the AI is 4-8.5. Are these significant numbers that he should know about?--Seeing my pressure had been at 12. I did have a bad night at my titration for the bilevel. Thanks

The AHI needs to be under 5...so yes..he needs to know about these numbers.
