Abstract Background: Real-time detection and classification of apneic episodes remain significant challenges. This study explores the applicability of a novel method of monitoring the respiratory effort and dynamics for rapid detection and classification of apneic episodes. Methods: Obstructive apnea (OA) and hypopnea/central apnea (CA) were induced in nine tracheostomized rats, by short-lived airway obstruction, and administration of succinylcholine, respectively. Esophageal pressure (EP), EtCO2, SpO2, HR, and blood-pressure were monitored.
