This review provides a critical analysis of current respiratory monitoring techniques in diagnosis of sleep apnea syndrome. The correct analysis of polysomnography requires knowledge of the limitations of the means of recording used. These limitations, for invasive and noninvasive techniques, are discussed in terms of calculation, differentiation and scoring of respiratory events. Aims and means are stated for monitoring and scoring in research as well as in clinical practice.
