Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of a new operator-independent, automated measure of sleep physiology based on cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) analysis in subjects with primary insomnia vs. good sleepers. Patients/methods The polysomnograms of 50 subjects with primary...
