According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) 2007 scoring manual, the sum of dual respiratory inductive plethysmography signals, RIP-sum, can be used as an alternative signal instead of airflow signal to detect sleep apnea events. In this study, a new method is proposed to detect apnea-hypopnea events using the RIP-sum signal. An event-based metric is used to evaluate the results of the proposed method. The results showed that the RIP-sum signal could be a reliable alternative signal to detect sleep apnea-hypopnea events using the proposed method.
