Mechanisms of apnea

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 1995
Instabilities in breathing pattern are a common feature of sleep, giving rise to a variety of syndromes that vary in the magnitude of respiratory disturbance but that all lead to frequent arousals and sleep fragmentation. Although these syndromes vary in intensity of respiratory disturbance, the underlying mechanism of each is determined to a large ...

A Possible Mechanism for Mixed Apnea in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Chest, 1986
Hypopneas or pauses in respiratory effort frequently precede episodes of obstructive sleep apnea resulting in mixed apneas. We studied five subjects after chronic tracheostomy for obstructive sleep apnea. During stable non-REM (NREM) sleep, subjects breathed entirely through the tracheostomy. Tracheostomy occlusion caused experimental obstructive apnea
