Novel Indices to Improve the Diagnostic Ability of Nocturnal Oximetry in Children with OSAS

Novel Indices to Improve the Diagnostic Ability of Nocturnal Oximetry in Children with OSAS

Nocturnal pulse oximetry (NOx) is an alternative diagnostic test for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in childhood yet with variable diagnostic performance. Our aim was to apply advanced signal analysis to develop novel and more accurate NOx indices. We studied 45 children aged 3–10 years who...
