Oxygen desaturation index decreased 70%, from 25.4 events/h to 7.4 events/h (p 0.001). A reduction of sleep apnoea symptoms and improved quality of life were reported by patients. There is a possible role for this treatment in the future, although it is unlikely to replace CPAP as first ...
A more recent study had also demonstrated the significant effect of increased smoking status, expressed by Pack/Years (P/Ys), with OSA severity, expressed by Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) and oxygen desaturation index (ODI) [39]. Our group had recently performed a study evaluating the effects ...

Background:Preoxygenation is a critical step in the management of airway interventions, especially in critically ill patients undergoing tracheal intubation. This process involves the administration of supplemental oxygen before the induction of anesthesia to increase the oxygen reserves in the lungs, there...
The mean age across both treatment groups was 71 (SD 4.6) years, Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI) 28.7 (19.1) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) 11.6 (3.7). At 3?months, the ESS was significantly reduced in patients receiving CPAP treatment (?3.8, SD 0.4) compared with those given best ...
The Ignored Parameter in the Diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome: The Oxygen Desaturation Index We estimated the probability that a diagnostic classification would change across 2 nights of recording, as determined by a particular AHI cutoff point. Overall, there was no statistically significan...
The AD group showed statistically significant higher values of AHI (28.8 ± 20.0 vs 21.9 ± 16.1, p=0.003), apnea index (14.4±15.5 vs 9.9±11.8, p=0.016), 4% oxygen desaturation index (20.6±16.9 vs 15.9±14.6, p=0.019), the prevalence of AHI above 15/hour (69% vs 53%, p=...
Meta-regress analysis has found no significant impact factors.Based on current evidence, POD patients have a lower ScO 2 , and ScO 2 desaturation may increase POD incidence, indicating the role of ScO 2 underlying pathological mechanisms. For generalizability of evidence, we should rely on high-...
The patients who stopped CPAP treatment had a higher mean age, had more frequently undergone uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and had a lower mean oxygen desaturation index (ODI) than patients who continued using CPAP. ODI was an independent negative predictor of non-compliance (OR5units=0·6...
Over time, the definition has included the presence of reduced airflow of varying degrees, sometimes associated with oxygen desaturations from 2% to 4%, and sometimes also with the requirement that they be associated with an electroencephalographic arousal. This, of course, can significantly alter...
