Accelerometry-derived respiratory index estimating apnea-hypopnea index for sleep apnea screening

Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2021
Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS) is a multimorbid chronic disease with individual and societal deleterious consequences. Polysomnography (PSG) is the multi-parametric reference diagnostic tool that allows a manual quantification of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) to assess SAS severity.

Does apnea-hypopnea index alone reflect obstructive sleep apnea severity?

, 2013
Aim: We aimed to assess whether there was a correlation between the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), desaturation time under 90% (DTU-90), and mean saturation (MS) levels and the parameters associated with tissue ...

Clinical significance of mouth breathing as a marker of severity in pediatric obstructive sleep apnea

BMC Oral Health
Background To investigate whether clinically assessed mouth-breathing severity is independently associated with polysomnography–defined obstructive sleep apnea severity in children with adenoidal hypertrophy and/or tonsillar hypertrophy, and to evaluate ...

Cardiac autonomic control in the obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

Libyan Journal of Medicine, 2015
Introduction: The sympathetic activation is considered to be the main mechanism involved in the development of cardiovascular diseases in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The heart rate variability (HRV) analysis represents a non-invasive tool allowing the

Apnea-hypopnea index in sleep studies and the risk of over-simplification

Sleep Science, 2018
According to recent reports, sleep disorders affect 30% of the adult population and 5-10% of children. Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSA) has a considerable epidemiological impact and demand for consultation is growing in our community. Therefore, it is necessary to know the principles of interpretation of diagnostic methods.

A 15-Year-Old Boy with Mysterious Variability in Apnea-Hypopnea Index [PDF]

Chest, 2018
A 15-year-old boy presented as a direct referral for polysomnography for evaluation of snoring, unrefreshing sleep, and daytime sleepiness despite a self-reported average of 8 hours of sleep a night. The mother reported he snored intermittently, although there were no witnessed apneic episodes or fragmented sleep. He denied morning headaches.
