Current diagnostic parameters estimating obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity have a
poor connection to the psychomotor vigilance of OSA patients. Thus, we aimed to investigate …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)‐related intermittent hypoxaemia is a potential risk factor for
different OSA comorbidities, for example cardiovascular disease. However, conflicting …

Summary Oxygen saturation (SpO2)‐based parameters are more strongly linked to impaired
daytime vigilance than the conventional diagnostic metrics in patients with obstructive sleep …

Objective: In obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), breathing cessations are often followed by
arousals, leading to sleep fragmentation and thus impaired sleep quality. Arousals and …

Study Objectives: The aim was to investigate how the severity of apneas, hypopneas, and
related desaturations is associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-related daytime …

The current study investigated the night-to-night variability and diagnostic accuracy of the
oxygen desaturation index (ODI), as measured by ambulatory monitoring, in the diagnosis of …

Excessive daytime sleepiness, fatigue and altered attention are often experienced by
obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) patients. Although attentional problems are presumably …

Purpose Recently, there has been a debate about the rules used to score hypopnea events.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of different oxygen desaturation …

Background Perceived sleep quality may play an important role in diagnosis and therapy for
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, few studies have assessed factors that are …

Objectives Most previous studies have failed to show a relation between daytime sleepiness
and apnoea severity in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). We determined the …
