"When he was given an arterial blood gas, it was normal."

But the nocturnal oximetry was "catastrophic with very prolonged and deep desaturations".

This contrast between daytime results and overnight reality is a core theme in a practical webinar by Prof. Capucine Morelot, presented by Breas Medical.
Her analysis of real patient cases reveals:
➡️ How patients with a normal morning PtcCO2 can still show clear criteria for nocturnal alveolar hypoventilation.
➡️ How apneas "considered obstructive by the software were in fact central apneas", a finding that can change the entire treatment approach.
➡️ How, even with technical errors, clinicians can still analyze the "dynamics of PtcCO2 because the kinetics remain the same".
This level of analysis is essential for effective and .
For the clinicians in our network, what is the biggest challenge you face when interpreting data?
