Concerns arising from the calculation of the apnea-hypopnea index during CPAP-telemonitoring of patients with obstructive sleep apnea
Our proof-of-concept study highlights inconsistencies in AHI<sub>flow</sub> calculations among CPAP manufacturers, raising concerns about patient care. Establishing standardized AHI<sub>flow</sub> calculation criteria is essential to ensuring accurate monitoring and optimal patient safety.
