Case of the Month #65: Measures of OSA Severity

Description: The diagnostic portion of a sleep study shows severe OSA. But how do we know it's severe? The debate between AHI and other markers of apnea severity is reviewed, including the positions of Drs. Rapaport and Punjabi. The treatment portion of the recording makes it clear that the AHI is inadequate as the technologist attempts to normalize the patient's breathing during sleep.
