1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundSleep disordered breathing manifested as sleep apnea (SA) is prevalent in the general population, and while it is associated with increased morbidity and mortality risk in some patient populations, it remains under-diagnosed. The objective of this study was to assess the accuracy of respiration-rate (RR) and tidal-volume (TV) estimation algorithms, from body-surface ECG signals, using a smartphone based ambulatory respiration monitoring system (cvrPhone).

methodsTwelve lead ECG signals were collected using the cvrPhone from anesthetized and mechanically ventilated swine (n = 9). During ECG data acquisition, the mechanical ventilator tidal-volume (TV) was varied from 250 to 0 to 750 to 0 to 500 to 0 to 750 ml at respiratory rates (RR) of 6 and 14 breaths/min, respectively, and the RR and TV values were estimated from the ECG signals using custom algorithms.

resultsTV estimations from any two different TV settings showed statistically significant difference (p < 0.01) regardless of the RR. RRs were estimated to be 6.1±1.1 and 14.0±0.2 breaths/min at 6 and 14 breaths/min, respectively (when 250, 500 and 750 ml TV settings were combined). During apnea, the estimated TV and RR values were 11.7±54.9 ml and 0.0±3.5 breaths/min, which were significantly different (p<0.05) than TV and RR values during non-apnea breathing. In addition, the time delay from the apnea onset to the first apnea detection was 8.6±6.7 and 7.0±3.2 seconds for TV and RR respectively.

conclusionsWe have demonstrated that apnea can reliably be detected using ECG-derived RR and TV algorithms. These results support the concept that our algorithms can be utilized to detect SA in conjunction with ECG monitoring.
