(ICD‐9 code 327.23) was present in 5.2% of the entire sample and, more importantly, a number of comorbidities were more frequently present in OSAS patients than in non‐OSAS counterparts, including chronic heart failure (32% vs 14%), acute coronary syndrome (5% vs 4%), ventricular ...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a widespread chronic sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by recurrent complete or partial collapses in the upper airway during sleep [1, 2]. It affects approximately 9% to 38% of the general adult population, and its prevalence steadily rises with increa...
ICD-hyphen10 codes covered if selection criteria are met: G47.33 Obstructive sleep apnea (adult) (pediatric) [OSAS] Hypoglossal nerve stimulation: CPT codes covered if selection criteria are met: 64582 Open implantation of hypoglossal nerve neurostimulator array, pulse generator, and distal respiratory...
The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is equal to the average number of episodes of apnea and hypopnea per hour of sleepwithout the use of a positive airway pressure device. Sleep time can only be measured in a Type I (facility-based polysomnogram) or Type II sleep study. Thus the AHI is r...
METHODS: The prevalences of COPD, asthma, and COPD combined with asthma (ICD-9 coding) were compared between 1,497 adult OSA patients and 1,489 control patients, who were matched for age, gender, geographic location, and primary care physician. The prevalences of specific co-morbidities were...
OSA was identified using one inpatient or two outpatient ICD-9 codes from electronic medical records. Average pain intensity, based on the self-reported 0-10 numeric rating scale over a 12- month period, was categorized as no pain/mild (0-3; no pain) and moderate/severe (4-10; ...
25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] deficiency in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) has long been noted, but identifying the exact causal relationship remains hard. Investigation of the causality between 25(OH)D deficiency and OSA would help facilita
ICD-10/ICD-9 and CPT codes for sleep apnea, PSG, depression, and epilepsy. Search terms for sleep apnea included the ICD-10 code G47.3, and the ICD-9 codes for obstructive sleep apnea (327.23), sleep related nonobstructive alveolar hypoventilation (327.27), obesity hypoventilation syndrome (...
This study aims to evaluate the quantity, types, and trends of surgical procedures used to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) within a diverse national po
However, the diagnosis of sleep apnea was usually done using polysomnography according to recently published data in Korea40,41. Since the aim of this study was not about the exact diagnosis of OSA, but to examine the relationship between clinically significant OSA and NAFLD, we used the ICD-...
