Mixed Sleep Apnoea

A combination of obstructive and central events, where airway blockage and irregular breathing control occur together. Mixed apnoea can be challenging to detect without detailed diagnostic testing.

Mixed apnoea includes features of both obstructive and central events, beginning without respiratory effort and ending with airway obstruction. Correct identification is important for tailoring therapy.

Stowood’s polygraphy (PG) and polysomnography (PSG) systems help clinicians differentiate mixed apnoea patterns through combined airflow, effort, and oximetry signals.
