Abstract

Despite not detecting all wakefulness, the high positive predictive value suggests that analysis of the respiration signal alone may be a useful indicator of CNS state with potential utility in the control of CPAP in OSAHS. The present study demonstrates the feasibility of automating the detection of IrREG.
