"Yeah I was wondering about email address. I thought probably if they wanted me to mail them they would have given out an address. I can imagine heart data is considered more acute than sleep data, so it would make more sense to have that…"
"Hi.
I didn't use PatientsKnowBest (ironic name), but I have an email address for my heart department for sending in ECGs. I was just saying that they may be able to review a PDF when then cannot review a data file from your O2 ring.
I am…"
"Hi Jonathan, did you do that through PatientKnowsBest?"

Wellu O2 Ring - is it accurate enough for the medics?
Moving some furniture my long lost O2 ring continuous oxygen saturation monitor turned up. So I've been wearing it and it tells me I have loads of saturation drops during the night even though my Airsense 10 says I have very few apneas.So I get two…See More
"Hi,
Just thought I'd give an update. So, I had my appointment with the NHS sleep clinic which was much quicker than I anticipated and I've now had the overnight sleep study. My AHI is now 6, down from over 30, so I'm…"

"Hi
My sleep clinic discharged me, saying they were happy I was self-managing. Roll on a decade and the cardiologists taking care of me were very unimpressed and I was re-enrolled. I expect remote monitoring with current generation Resmed…"
"Hi Jonathan,
Thanks again for the info. My cpap *should* be monitored by the NHS though I haven’t had any contact from them since pre-covid. I checked out the link you gave to access extra data and I think that’s going to be…"
"Hi
I have the ResMed Airsense 10 Autoset (APAP). It's monitored remotely by my NHS sleep clinic and I believe they can make changes to the settings. I don't know whether they are notified if I make changes, nor whether they…"
"Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for the reply. I'd say that I'm fairly technical. I have the ResMed Airsense 10 Elite machine. I've discovered that I can upload data wirelessly from my machine and having lowered the pressure by…"

You don't say how technical you are, or what sort of machine you use. However https://www.sleephq.com/ has software which allows you to upload data from compatible machines, and analyse your sleep "score", including a…"
