For example, in the case of an obstru...

Re: Central Apneas and Respiratory Rate
Oh you think you're the cat's banana. You're just mad 'cause you didn't think of that. BTW, did you ever consider that the straight line of the Tidal Volume would be that even if it did Breath-by-Breath Calculation, it is simply waiting for the next breath? OK then Mr.-Know-It-All, why doesn't the ...

Re: Squishing the belly increases AHI
I just completed a follow up study in which I did the same thing to see if compressing the abdomen makes OSA worse. Well, the results are in: raising pressure inside the abdomen does indeed increase AHI. Do you have any other data? What you have presented so far simply suggests you have changed aro...
