Estimation of airway obstruction using oximeter plethysmograph waveform data

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Validated measures to assess the severity of airway obstruction in patients with obstructive airway disease are limited. Changes in the pulse oximeter plethysmograph waveform represent fluctuations in arterial flow. Analysis of these...
