| Abstract | A new noninvasive method to detect obstructive and central sleep apnea [(OSA) and (CSA)] events is described. Data were collected from ten volunteer subjects with a previous diagnosis of OSA while they were titrated for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. Apneic events were identify by analyzing of estimated airway impedance determined from pressure and airflow signals delivered from CPAP. To enhance performance of this technique, a single-frequency (5 Hz with 0.5 cmH/sub 2/O peak-to-peak amplitude) probing signal was superimposed on the applied CPAP pressure. The results indicated that estimated airway impedance during OSA (mean: 17.9, SD: 3.4, N=50) was significantly higher then during CSA (mean: 4.1, SD: 1.7, N=50). When the estimated impedance of OSA and CSA events were compared to a fixed threshold, 100% of all events can be correctly categorized. These results indicate that it may be possible to diagnose OSA and CSA noninvasively based upon this technique. The instrument and the algorithm required are relatively simple and can be incorporated in a home-based device. If this method was used for prescreening apnea patients, it could reduce cost, waiting time, and discomfort associated with traditional diagnostic procedures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
