    This study presents a new method for evaluating sleep apnea using readily available hospital equipment. The findings demonstrate a practical approach for diagnosing sleep apnea in community settings.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Medical Devices
    • Diagnostic Methods

    Background:

    • Sleep apnea diagnosis often requires specialized equipment.
    • Accessibility of diagnostic tools can be a limitation in community hospitals.
    • Developing cost-effective and accessible diagnostic methods is crucial.

    Observation:

    • A novel method for evaluating sleep apnea was developed.
    • The method utilizes equipment commonly found in community hospitals.
    • The system is designed for easy assembly and implementation.

    Findings:

    • The reported method successfully evaluated two cases of sleep apnea.
    • The technique proved effective in a community hospital setting.
    • The diagnostic approach is practical and reproducible.
