Sleep test results from November

Post by Greg Riddle » Tue Feb 03, 2015 4:25 pm

Requested a copy of my sleep test results today while at follow up visit.
Maximum achieved pressure during test was bilevel 19 ipap 14 epap ps 5. Ahi at max achieved pressure was 10.7. Oxegen saturation at max achieved pressure was 89%. The max pressure was limited due to time.
Sleep efficiency was 73.8% stage n1 sleep was 3% stage n2 was 46.2% stage n3 was 39% rem sleep was 11.6%
Sleep latency was 31.5 minutes. Rem latency was 223 minutes

Ahi while supine was 33.9
Lowest o2 saturation was 83%
No cardiac abnormalities
No limb movements

One thing that caught my attention was, avoid operating motor vehicles or handling heavy dangerous equipment while in somnolent state

Soooo...What's your question? Did you discuss this with your doctor since you were at a "follow up?"

No question just posting for conversation. Most of the follow up was a discussion on how the vpap is working, what I've done to make it work, and if my symptoms are getting better

39% is deep sleep?? That is great, isn't it?
