Snoring, a symptom which may indicate the presence of the obstructive sleep apnoea
syndrome (OSA), is also common in the general population. Recent studies have suggested …

The obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea (OSAH) syndrome is a common and frequently
undiagnosed sleep disorder. It is characterized by repeated events of partial (hypopnea) or …

Acoustic studies on snoring sounds have recently drawn attention as a potential alternative
to polysomnography in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This paper …

Study Objectives: It is commonly believed that louder snoring is associated with more severe
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We evaluated the association between snoring intensity and …

Study Objectives: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a portable single-channel
(intra-nasal pressure) sleep apnea device (ApneaLink) in both the laboratory and at home …

Using heart rate spectral analysis of nocturnal pulse oximetry, we prospectively evaluated
the utility of this methodology in patients clinically suspected of having obstructive sleep …

Study Objectives: To develop and validate a practical model for obstructive sleep apnea
(OSA) screening in adults based on objectively assessed criteria, and then compare it with …

Objective The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) does not provide information about the apnea
depth and length. We aimed to evaluate the correlation of the oxygen desaturation index …

Rationale: The most common single channel devices used for obstructive sleep apnea
(OSA) screening are nasal airflow and oximetry. No studies have directly compared their …

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is currently diagnosed by a full nocturnal polysomnography
(PSG), a very expensive and time-consuming method. In previous studies we were able to …
