curious as to what pressures, typically, UARS patients experience relief......a pressure of 7cm works for me in SWS sleep (deep) but not so much in REM.....ready to start cranking it up.

with all do respect, you are being closed minded by saying that it is impossible.

Yes and I'm sure that every Website That is advertising a product, says favoriable things about threr product , that they wish to sell........I want You and everyone else on this site to get better. Sometimes New products are great ideas but they just dont work. I have seen many of these come and go. I will continue to question any product that claims to do something that is imposible! I will not profit by doing this, do you see my point. I do my job , help others when I can, and go home and go to sleep.

i never said the ZEO was as accurate as a sleep study. it is not remotely close to the accuracy of a sleep study. it is NOT something one should use to diagnose a sleep breathing disorder. by advocating it's use, i in no way am challenging the validity or importance of the job that you all do as techs. what i am doing is trying to tell others that it does what it claims to do and that it has helped me. that is all. if you go on there web sight you will find scientific evaluations were the ZEO was compared to a PSG. and no, i don't work for zeo. cheers, sleepsurfer
thats the Dude who made the 1st ICBM, Sleepsurfer. I like it better than the Goddard dig. Your Good! Mollete!

Actually, you said

the ZEO sleep monitor does work very well. the daily results i get mirror the results from my numerous PSG's.

which implied exactly that, but what the hey.

The scientific evaluations say that if you take 2 scorers that have an inter-rater agreement of 84% (which, BTW, is NOT an acceptible agreement rating), Zeo is in agreement with THEM only 74% of the time. Further, that agreement drops to 66 and 65% when scoring OSA patients and insomniacs.

Yeah, and you ain't no Werner von Braun.
