OSCAR - the Open Source CPAP Analysis Reporter
OSCAR is software compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems, developed for reviewing and exploring data produced by supported CPAP, bilevel, ventilators and related machines used in the treatment of sleep apnea. Oscar requires that data is collected on a SD card which MUST be inserted into the PAP machine during use to record detailed data.
Introduction
- This help system is a work in progress. Links shown in red indicate that the specific content is yet to be added to the wiki.
