GAS SUPPLY DEVICE FOR SLEEP APNEA

摘要

The invention concerns methods for controlling an apparatus supplying air pressure to a patient suffering from sleep disorders such as apnea, the patient wearing a mask (MVA) through which pressurised air is supplied to his upper anatomical airways by the apparatus, which consist in: measuring the air pressure in the mask (MVA) and the air flow rate supplied to the mask (MVA); determining from the measured variables, the occurrence or not of signs denoting sleep disorders.
