Abstract
Present embodiments are directed to a system and method capable of detecting and graphically indicating physiologic patterns in patient data. For example, present embodiments may include a monitoring system that includes a monitor capable of receiving input relating to patient physiological parameters and providing indications or alarms related to oxygen saturation declines and oxygen desaturation patterns associated with sleep apnea. Present embodiments may include methods and systems for mediating between alarms and other indicators associated with oxygen desaturation and ventilatory instability.
