Fig. 3.23 The patient must select all folder content, then right click the cursor, and send it to a
“Compressed File”. You need to instruct the patient on how to send to you this compressed folder
by e-mail (often the content, even if compressed, has been large; in these cases, is better to send it
by using GoogleDrive, Dropbox, or any other tool that can manage large les). (Figure source:

3.7 Procedure when Respiratory Flow Curve Is
Not Displayed
Ensure to have the latest version of the ResScan™ software. Be careful to always
work with the latest software for any positive pressure equipment manufacturer you
want to analyze high-resolution data.
Install a new version, if applicable. However, if this does not resolve the prob-
lem, follow these steps.
3.7.1 First Options forShowing theFlow Curve
On the ResScan™ home screen, click on the “Reports” option (Fig.3.25). Then
click on the “Customize” option (Fig.3.26). Click on the “Detailed Graphs” option
(Fig.3.27). Conrm that the “Flow” plots are in this window. Otherwise, add the

3.8 Further Reading
Airow analysis is also discussed in the book Advances in the Diagnosis and
Treatment of Sleep Apnea (series title: Advances in Experimental Medicine and
Biology—doi.org/10.1007/978- 3- 031- 06413- 5). The chapter “Airow Analysis in
the Context of Sleep Apnea” reviews the main methodological approaches applied
to characterize and extract relevant information from respiratory airow signal [12].

Assessment oftheRespiratory Flow Curve
4.1 Understanding ofAlgorithms
Polysomnography (PSG) is a sleep study that uses electroencephalogram, electro-
oculogram, electromyogram, electrocardiogram, and pulse oximetry, as well as air-
ow and respiratory effort, to assess the underlying causes of sleep disturbance.
Two quality airow sensors are used in the PSG. The oronasal thermal sensor
(thermistor) detects temperature changes in inhaled or exhaled respiration to moni-
tor airow and is best used to identify apneas (90% reduction in airow). The nasal
pressure transducer detects pressure changes during inhalation and exhalation to
monitor airow and is used to identify hypopnea (30% reduction of airow). In
addition, two respiratory inductance plethysmography sensors or straps are used to
determine the qualitative respiratory effort in the chest and abdomen. These sensors
identify the various types of respiratory events, including obstructive apnea, obstruc-
tive hypopnea, and central apnea [1].
During the PSG examination, oxygen saturation is obtained through pulse oxim-
etry and is used to assist with scoring hypopneas when there is at least a 3% or 4%
oxygen desaturation (depending on whether the recommended AASM or acceptable
scoring criteria is used) associated with the respiratory event. Also, PSG detects
arousals from sleep stages N1, N2, N3, or REM when there is an abrupt shift of the
electroencephalogram frequency in the alpha or theta range, or frequencies greater
than 16Hz, lasting for at least 3s [1].
PSG is the gold standard for diagnosing sleep-related breathing disorders, which
include obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central sleep apnea, and sleep-related
hypoventilation/hypoxia [1].
Positive airway pressure (PAP) devices– like continuous, auto-adjusting, and
bilevel machines, can also measure airow and circuit pressure to detect and store
the memory mask on time and the occurrence of respiratory events. The algorithms
https://t.me/medicina_free

for event detection used by these devices are based on measurements of airow,
vibration, and airow prole attening [2].
Detection of events from PAP devices shows the same variables obtained on
polysomnogram (PSG), including apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), apnea index (AI),
and hypopnea index (HI). However, although health professionals use the event
detection information recorded by these PAP devices to assess treatment efcacy,
PAP devices and PSG differ in the methods used to generate these measures. PAPs
use airow to detect apnea and hypopnea. In contrast, the abnormal respiratory
events on PSG are scored using not only airow but also the arterial oxygen satura-
tion level, respiratory effort, and, depending on the scoring criteria, electroencepha-
lographic (EEG)/electromyographic (EMG) arousals.
Due to differences in how PAP and PSG detect respiratory events and generate
indices of respiratory events, it is very important that healthcare practitioners under-
stand how these measures compare to each other [2].
It is also essential for sleep care professionals to be aware that each manufacturer
has developed their own algorithm for their positive airway pressure machines. In
this book, we discuss the algorithm developed for ResMed for devices commonly
used to treat sleep apnea.
4.1.1 Obstructive or Central Apneas
When analyzing the respiratory ow curve generated by the PAP device, in regular
respiration, the respiratory ow curve will have a characteristic design, as shown in
Fig.4.1.

Respiratory flow (1/min)
Fig. 4.1 The arrow shows the “zero“point which marks the transition from inspiration to exhala-
tion. We note here that the inhalation curve is relatively rounded (half circle dashed), and that the
expiration curve is slightly longer than the inhalation curve. Inhalation ends at the beginning of
exhaling and exhaling ends at the beginning of inhalation. The sum of an inspiratory curve and an
exhalation curve is referred to as the breathing cycle and appears as a sine wave (dashed parallel
bars). In a one-minute window, we should expect to nd 14–20 breathing cycles (here we have a
30-s window to better observe the respiratory waveform). In general, we expect the maximum
inspiratory ow rate to be about 20L/min, but this value will show some individual variations.
