Only qualified technicians who have been reading your latest sleep-study results are supposed to be able to recommend to your physician what changes s/he should make. But in practice, if you put on 10 lbs, your setting almost always goes up 0.5. All the fancy "art of interpretation" is just applying a rather boring formula.
