The effects of sleep positions and sleep stages in obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Health Science and Medical Research (JHSMR), 2009
Objective: To determine the effect of sleep positions and sleep stages on the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) with oxygen desaturation (OD) vs. without OD in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on anthropomorphic and nocturnal polysomnographic (PSG) data of a group of 253 OSA patients (AHI ≥ 5)
