FIGURE 1.
Example of an arousal induced by an increase in CO2. a) General view and b) increased magnification of 30 s during an arousal. EMG: electro-myogram; EEG: electroencephalogram (tracings O2-A1 and C3-A2); CPAP: continuous positive airway pressure; Poes: oesophageal pressure; PET,CO2: end-tidal CO2 tension. .....: PET,CO2 level. #: arousal; ¶: respiratory effort. 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa.
