Sleep apnea-hypopnea quantification by cardiovascular data analysis [PDF]
, 2014 Sleep apnea is the most common sleep disturbance and it is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disorders. Its detection relies on a polysomnography, a combination of diverse exams. In order to detect changes due to sleep disturbances such as sleep apnea occurrences, without the need of combined recordings, we mainly analyze systolic blood ...

Dynamics of Snoring Sounds and Its Connection with Obstructive Sleep Apnea [PDF]
, 2012 Snoring is extremely common in the general population and when irregular may indicate the presence of obstructive sleep apnea. We analyze the overnight sequence of wave packets --- the snore sound --- recorded during full polysomnography in patients referred to the sleep laboratory due to suspected obstructive sleep apnea. We hypothesize that irregular

Screening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Empirical Mode Decomposition of Pulse Oximetry [PDF]
, 2014 Detection of desaturations on the pulse oximetry signal is of great importance for the diagnosis of sleep apneas. Using the counting of desaturations, an index can be built to help in the diagnosis of severe cases of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome.

Use of a human patient simulator for apnea studies: a preliminary in vitro trial [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022 Background Modern human patient simulators (HPSs) could be used for researching critical scenarios such as apnea oxygenation. We aimed to study the use of a high-fidelity HPS to assess prolonged apnea using various oxygenation strategies with a simple ...

National Knowledge-Driven Management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea—The Swedish Approach
Diagnostics, 2023 Introduction: This paper describes the development of “Swedish Guidelines for OSA treatment” and the underlying managed care process. The Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) is traditionally used as a single parameter for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity ...

Intravenous Propofol and Inhalational Sevoflurane for Ease of Classic Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion in Patients Undergoing Elective Surgery: A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Introduction: The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) has gained extensive popularity for airway management during surgery. Propofol, the most commonly used induction agent for LMA insertion, causes significant haemodynamic changes.
