What is the definition of hypopnea?
irregular resp event reduced airflow/reduction of thoraci movement from 30 % baseline with 4% desaturation; 50% reduction in flow with 3% desaturation, lasting more than 10 seconds in adults (more than 2 resp cycles, 5 seconds in kids)
What is central apnea?
cessation in respiratory effort, airflow, thoracic/abdominal movement, 4% decrease in O2 sat or <4% with EEG arousal, lasting >10 seconds (children 3% O2 desat, 25% decrease in heart rate)
What is obstructive apnea?
cessation or near cessation of airflow with reduced thoracic/abdominal movements with >3# oxyygen desat, or EEG arousal
What is the calculation for effective minute ventilation?
5*Wt(kg*respiratory rate, event length >90 seconds, reduction of airflow to a less than effective tial volume and minute ventilation or end tidal CO2 >50 torr
What is the definition of a transient arousal?
abrupt shift in EEG frequency for at least 3 seconds but not enough to be awake, (arousal during REM if accompanied by increased submental EMG)
