Trial Outcomes & Findings for Auto Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Based Energy Spectrum Analysis of Flow for Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) (NCT NCT00750165)

NCT ID: NCT00750165

Last Updated: 2019-04-09

Results Overview

The Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) measure of severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). It is a calculation of the number of apnea events and the number of hypopnea events divided by the total sleep time. Mild OSA is characterized between 5-15 events per hour. Moderate OSA is characterized as 15-30 events per hour. Severe OSA is characterized as greater than 30 events per hour.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 Night

Oxygen saturation is a measurement of the amount of oxygen present in the blood. An oxygen saturation of less than 90% is considered low, resulting in hypoxemia. Normal blood oxygen level is considered between 95-100%.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 Night

Similar to AHI, the RDI is a calculation of the total number of respiratory disturbances in sleep. The calculation includes apneas and hypopneas, but also includes respiratory effort related arousals.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 Night

The Arousal Index is a calculation of the frequency of awakenings per hour of sleep. The higher the number, the more awakenings per hour.
