Central Sleep Apnea Detection and the Enhanced AutoSet Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ability to detect central apneas is a useful addition to an automatic algorithm for the treatment of OSA. The ResMed AutoSet algorithm has recently been enhanced to include a Central Sleep Apnea Detector (CSAD). This paper describes the CSAD as part of the enhanced AutoSet algorithm on the S9 flow generator and documents the process of validation which included early human testing, bench testing and clinical trial results. The enhanced AutoSet algorithm and CSAD showed that it identified and appropriately treated the different types of apneas with a very high degree of accuracy leading to better overall therapy.

Detection of apnoeas, hypopnoeas and arousals by the AutoSet in the sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome.
Limited sleep study systems are increasingly being used to diagnose the sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome, but validation is essential and detection of arousal's desirable. One such system (AutoSet) was validated on an event-by-event basis, and the hypothesis that sudden large breaths detected by this system mark arousal from sleep was also examined. Twenty consecutive patients (apnoea/hypopnoea ...

We have previously shown that AutoSet satisfactorily improves sleep-disordered breathing and sleep architecture in subjects with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine, in subjects treated with long-term conventional fixed pressure continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) at the AutoSet recommended pressure, whether: the long-term compliance is satisfa...

In patients with the sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome (SAHS), accurate and timely diagnostic evaluation and initiation of effective treatment is important. Therefore, an increasing number of limited sleep studies are now performed nowadays diagnosing the SAHS in typical patients. It was the aim of the present study to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of one such system, the updated ResMed Sulliv...
متن کاملComparison of a limited computerized diagnostic system (ResCare Autoset) with polysomnography in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome.
The increasing numbers of patients referred for evaluation of suspected obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) places a growing burden on available sleep laboratory resources. A number of limited diagnostic systems have been developed in an effort to cope with this clinical problem. In this study, the diagnostic capabilities of one limited diagnostic system (ResCare Autoset) were compared with full pol...
متن کاملComparison of polysomnography with ResCare Autoset in the diagnosis of the sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome.
BACKGROUND Increasing referral numbers make the development of simplified accurate methods of diagnosing the sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome highly desirable. The accuracy of one such system--the ResCare Autoset--has been examined. METHODS Thirty one consecutive patients assessed by polysomnography had simultaneous monitoring of their respiratory pattern using the Autoset system. The Autoset ...
