Interpreting Data

Post by Ladelnutts » Wed Jul 20, 2011 5:59 pm

Hi all. I got my generic ACR38 card reader today and hooked it up. I downloaded my data into Rescan 3.14. Now I have no clue what I'm looking at or what it all means. I see a lot of apnea and hypopnea events. Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to read this data?

Thanks!
TODD

It would also help if you posted some of the data that is confusing you.
