Three components of obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome
The aims of this study were to calculate the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI), which represented as the number of apnea–hypopnea occurrences per hour, the 4% oxygen desaturation index (ODI4) and the breathing‐related arousal index (B‐ArI) in polysomnographic studies of obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syn...

Zusammenfassung: | The aims of this study were to calculate the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI), which represented as the number of apnea–hypopnea occurrences per hour, the 4% oxygen desaturation index (ODI4) and the breathing‐related arousal index (B‐ArI) in polysomnographic studies of obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients and to investigate whether there was any relationship between each pair of scoring schemes. Thirty‐four cases of OSAHS were studied. Total OSAHS patients were subdivided into those with a high AHI (> 25), and those with a low AHI ( |
