An apparatus for monitoring the respirations of a patient comprises, generating means for generating a respiration signal having amplitude modulations representative of patient respirations, as well as respiration artifacts, and processing means coupled to the generating means and responsive to the respiration signal for: 1) detecting inflection points in the respiration signal; 2) determining if the slope of either one of a portion of the respiration signal which precedes or follows each detected inflection point exceeds a predetermined threshold level; and 3) developing breath indication information based upon the slope threshold determination.
