ResScan software terms-----anyone explain?

Post by dshel1 » Sat Dec 03, 2011 10:07 am

i have the resscan software and have read the manuals and watched the montford house tutorial on how to use the software. i would like to know if someone has written an explanation of the data the software uses. specifically what is snore index? flow limitation? etc. and how do they relate to each other. the software is great but i need to understand what alll those data terms are and how they relate in order to use the software effectively. thanks!!!!!

Here you go...

search.php?keywords=snore+index

search.php?keywords=flow+limitation

That should get you started.

And it seems to me, in the dim recesses of my mind that if you select a ResScan report the last page of the report is a list of the Resmed specific definitions.
