REVERSE DUAL POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE CHALLENGES FOR BREATHING DISORDER DIAGNOSTICS

摘要

Systems and methods for classifying breathing disorders of subjects are based on the respiratory response to a change in a pressure level of a pressurized flow of breathable gas. The change presents a breathing challenge to a subject. The challenge may be limited to the inspiratory breathing phase. The inspiratory pressure level may be lower than the expiratory pressure level during challenges.
