Chest, 1994
Quantitation of apneas and hypopneas is routinely included in studies of epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). The definition of apnea appears clear-cut in the sleep literature. In contrast, the literature contains remarkable variety in both recording techniques and definitions of hypopnea.

A Comparison of Apnea–Hypopnea Indices Derived from Different Definitions of Hypopnea
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1999Abstract We examined the effects of arousal- and desaturation-based scoring criteria on the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) and on the measured prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Ninety-four randomly selected patients underwent overnight polysomnography.

The AASM 2012 recommended hypopnea criteria increase the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea but not the proportion of positional obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
Objective/Background\ud \ud This study compared the effects of using the 2007 and 2012 American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) recommended hypopnea criteria on the proportion of positional obstructive sleep apnea (pOSA).

The ethics of hypopnea scoring
Journal of Clinical Sleep MedicineIn February of 2023, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine issued a "recommended" way to score hypopneas using 1A criteria (scoring of hypopneas using a ≥ 3% oxygen desaturation from pre-event baseline) that is at odds with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services mandate of scoring hypopneas using a ≥ 4% oxygen desaturation from pre-event ...

Arousal-based scoring of obstructive hypopneas
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2021Purpose of review Obstructive sleep apnea in adults is diagnosed by an apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) above five (at least five apneas and/or hypopneas per hour of sleep). Though the definition of apneas has remained stable, the scoring criteria for hypopneas has varied throughout the years.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2005OSAHS should be an expected condition in many patients encountered by primary care providers. The diagnosis may arise because of patient daytime dysfunction, partner prompting, or in the course of managing comorbidities adversely influenced by the hemodynamic, neural, humoral,and inflammatory consequences of repetitive desaturations and arousals.OSAHS ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2003Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is characterized by repetitive episodes of airflow reduction (hypopnea) or cessation (apnea) due to upper airway collapse during sleep. Increasing recognition and a greater understanding of the scope of this condition have substantially affected the practices of many clinicians.

Obstructive sleep apnea/ hypopnea syndrome
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999Obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea (OSA/H) is a common disorder for which there are a variety of therapeutic options. All patients should make appropriate alterations in lifestyle and habits to reduce the risk of upper airway instability during sleep. The aggressiveness of additional treatment should be dictated by the severity of OSA/H, as measured by ...

Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome and the Heart
Revista Española de Cardiología (English Edition), 2006Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are the most common diseases in industrialized societies. The main objectives of this article were to summarize the physiological effects of sleep apnea on the circulatory system and to review how treatment of this condition influences cardiovascular disease.

Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome in the Elderly
Archivos de Bronconeumología ((English Edition)), 2010The population pyramid is changing due to the increasing longevity of the population, making it a priority to have better knowledge of those diseases that have an increasingly major impact in advanced age. Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) affects 15-20% of individuals over 65 years.
