So I went yesterday (20110513) to get my new humidifier for my CPAP machine and got a little more clarification on my apnea events.
1. When I stop breathing it is on average for about 19.5 seconds (that is the average)
2. Longest was 55 seconds
3. My blood oxygen dropped to around 51%* during the test
So, I haven’t gotten a chance to try the humidifier yet, but I am excited!
* to give you some perspective, if say you were in a hospital and your blood oxygen (spO2) dipped below 89%, they would put you on oxygen.
