Determination of Apnea type

摘要

A method of differentiating between OSA and CSA comprising: determining if chest motion above a chest motion threshold is present; determining if tracheal breath sound above a breath sounds threshold are present, classifying a state as OSA if the chest motion is above the threshold and the sounds are below the threshold; and classifying a state as CSA if both the chest motion and sounds are below their respective thresholds.
