Objectives:
This study proposed a method of automatically classifying sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) events based on cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) analysis induced from a single-channel electrocardiogram (ECG).
Conclusions:
The classification performance showed sensitivity and positivity predictive values of 77.8% and 86.4% for SDB, respectively.
Practical Significance:
CPC analysis is feasible for a system to classify automatically SDB in a home environment without any other physiological signals.
