Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method directed to detecting a physiological signal during discrete time separated detection windows, deriving one or more respiratory disturbance indices from the physiological signal, detecting a respiratory disturbance state in response to the one or more respiratory disturbance indices deviating from a threshold value, interpolating the one or more respiratory disturbance indices between adjacent time separated detection windows, and declaring a respiratory disturbance episode based on the detected respiratory disturbance state during the detection windows and the interpolation between detection windows.
