Figure 1 Polygraphy records of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and central sleep apnoea (CSA) Figure 1 | Polygraphy records of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and central sleep apnoea (CSA). a | OSA is characterized by cessation or marked reduction of the airflow (Airflow band) in the presence of ventilatory effort (Thorax and Abdomen bands). b | CSA is characterized by cessation of both airflow (Airflow band) and respiratory effort (Thorax and Abdomen bands) during sleep. Snoring sounds and airflow were recorded with a nasal cannula; thoracic and abdominal muscle effort with piezoelectric strain gauges; oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate, and plethysmography (Plethysm.) with a finger cuff; and body position with an accelerometer.
