Ventilatory drive and the apnea-hypopnea index in six-to-twelve year old children
BACKGROUND:We tested the hypothesis that ventilatory drive in hypoxia and hypercapnia is inversely correlated with the number of hypopneas and obstructive apneas per hour of sleep (obstructive apnea hypopnea index, OAHI) in children.METHODS:Fifty children, 6 to 12 years of age were studied. Particip...
