She has moderate OSA (AHI 16.1) and severe UARS (RERA index 60). Lowest blood oxygen level 84%.
She went for a sleep study because she snores and has been experiencing fragmented sleep. She has just turned 60.
She has perfectly fine blood pressure (on the low side), and no co-morbidities. Not overweight. She doesn't experience daytime sleepiness … despite an RDI of over 60.
I am actually quite amazed at how well she is doing.
With my AHI of 16.2 and lowest blood oxygen level of 87%, I was experiencing arrhythmias and constant night sweats. Obviously It isn't just about the number of events!
I am wondering how treatment will be for her with the combination of OSA and UARS? Much the same as plain old OSA or a bit different?
