Help with OSCAR waveforms please

Post by Davidatrout » Tue Mar 30, 2021 12:54 am

Hello. I’m wondering if this is a Cheyne Stokes pattern, periodic breathing, or something else. I’m a night worker/day sleeper. These events are a half hour and an hour or so before awakening. Thanks for any input.

It appears to be periodic breathing but doesn't meet criteria for CSR pattern breathing.
CSR is but one of many forms of periodic breathing.
If it had met criteria for CSR then your machine would have flagged it as such.
