A

Central sleep apnea with Cheyne-Stokes
breathing

44
Q

Characterized by a pattern of periodic crescendo-decrescendo variation in tidal volume that results in central apneas and hypopneas occurring at a frequency of at least five events per hour

Cheyne-stokes breathing

45
Q

Polysomnograpy demonstrates episodes of decreased respiration associated with elevated CO2 levels.

A

Sleep-related hypoventilation
