New Procedure Can Detect Oxygen Levels In Snoring Children    

It Provides A Relatively Inexpensive Way To Detect Obstructive Sleep Apnea    

Identification of sleep apnea in children usually requires a detailed analysis involving an oximeter to record oxygen levels, brain activity monitors, detectors of eye movement and muscle tension and cardiac signal monitors. However, recent research has determined that the pulse oximeter provides the most relevant data for computer analysis, and the additional data had limited value. This provides a relatively inexpensive way to detect blood oxygen levels in children who snore, and determine if they have severe sleep apnea. More Information click here.
