Abstract
To accurately detect an occurrence of snoring.SOLUTION: A medical device includes: an acquisition part for acquiring flow data (301) representing a time series of a flow of respiration of a patient; a generation part for generating frequency data (401) from at least a part of an inhalation period of one respiration of the flow data; and a detection part for detecting an occurrence of snoring of the patient on the basis of satisfaction of a detection condition regarding the frequency data and reference data (402) having a frequency distribution of the flow of respiration in a case where it is assumed that snoring is not occurring in the patient.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
