Variability of respiratory mechanics during sleep in overweight and obese subjects with and without asthma

Variability of respiratory mechanics during sleep in overweight and obese subjects with and without asthma

Highlights • Variability of respiratory parameters may provide information about disease states. • Mean resistance is increased while variability of resistance was decreased in those with asthma as compared to healthy. • Variability of resistance was increased preceding arousals from sleep. • Bi-lev...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Variability of respiratory parameters may provide information about disease states. • Mean resistance is increased while variability of resistance was decreased in those with asthma as compared to healthy. • Variability of resistance was increased preceding arousals from sleep. • Bi-level positive airway pressure reduced the variability of resistance preceding arousals from sleep.
