Disclosed herein is a framework for facilitating biological tissue function analysis. In accordance with one aspect, saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen (SPO2) signal data is synchronized with respiration signal data. One or more waveform parameters may be generated based on the synchronized SPO2 signal data and the respiration signal data. One or more respiration-SPO2 parameters may then be determined based on the one or more waveform parameters and used to characterize the biological tissue function.
