Peripheral arterial tonometry versus polysomnography in suspected obstructive sleep apnoea

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Home sleep apnoea testing with peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) is a recommended diagnostic alternative for patients with an increased risk for ...

Defining Impaired Respiratory Health. A Paradigm Shift for Pulmonary Medicine [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2018
Respiratory research has historically focused on identifying risk factors for and treatment of established lung disease. Public health approaches to common conditions, however, mandate that health promotion is a central feature of disease prevention. While smoking initiation prevention and cessation efforts are essential to respiratory health promotion,

Oxygen desaturation during flexible bronchoscopy with propofol sedation is associated with sleep apnea: the PROSA-Study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2020
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive episodes of complete or partial obstruction of the upper airways during sleep. Conscious sedation for flexible bronchoscopy (FB) places patients in a sleep-like condition.
