Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods provide for detecting snoring, and for determining the presence of sleep disordered breathing using detected snoring. Snoring indicative signals generated by one or more patient-internal or external sensors are detected. The presence of sleep disordered breathing is algorithmically determined, patient-internally or externally, using the snoring signals. Algorithmically determining presence of sleep disordered breathing may include computing a snoring index developed from the detected snoring. Sleep apnea may be detected using the snoring index. Sleep apnea may be verified using internal or external sensors. A positive airway pressure device may operate cooperatively to verify and treat sleep disordered breathing.
