A cardiorespiratory model incorporating control of the human upper airway during sleep is described. Most previous models have not considered the possibility that the upper airway could be a limiting factor for gas exchange. Our model was developed to also predict certain pathophysiological phenomen
## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: An examination of the upper airway in patients with suspected sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is recommended prior to nighttime polysomnography (PSG) despite a reported low predictive value of those examinations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the data
