Summary
Using a combination of off-the-shelf and emerging technologies we will develop a multimodal diagnostic device that will identify and characterize the points of airway collapse that occur in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea. Using this multimodal approach will allow sleep clinicians to recommend the best form of therapeutic intervention for each individual patient rather than the current strong reliance on positive pressure facemasks.
