摘要:
Methods and systems are disclosed for analyzing a physiological respiratory signal in order to monitor respiratory depression events. In certain embodiments, respiratory depression is monitored by extracting a respiratory signal from a photoplethysmograph (“PPG”) signal, identifying a morphological characteristic of the respiratory signal, and generating a respiratory condition signal. In certain embodiments, an alarm and therapeutic intervention strategy are triggered upon determination of respiratory depression event. In certain embodiments, a plurality of physiological signals are used to determine a respiratory depression event
