Central Apneas

Post by Leadhead » Thu Mar 03, 2011 9:14 am

Does anyone know if Encore Pro 2 identifies central apneas, if so how are they displayed in the software?

Encore Pro 2 will identify what it thinks are centrals as CA events on the graphs "Clear Airway obstruction".

But only with the newer machine PR System One.

If you are still using the M series machine like I am, we don't get that data from the machine. It might be shown as a NR event, non responsive, but that is a big "might". M series machines aren't designed to flag centrals.
