Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for detecting respiratory disturbances based on multiple physiological parameters are provided. The method includes sensing one or more physiological signals, deriving from the sensed signals multiple physiological parameters that change during a respiratory disturbance, computing a probability that the respiratory disturbance is present using the multiple physiological parameters, and detecting the respiratory disturbance if the probability exceeds a predetermined threshold. In some embodiments, the method further includes generating an alert signal or other report in response to a respiratory disturbance detection. In other embodiments, the method further includes triggering the delivery of a therapy in response to a respiratory disturbance detection.
