3 Month Lab Results

FIG 5: At 3 months after his cardiac arrest ,his lab results revealed an AHI of 39 and a majority (85%) of central events.  He had almost no hypocapnia (PaCO2 38 mmHg), but despite an adequate ventilatory threshold, he had a very high ventilatory response at 4.12, which may have been one of the reasons why he had CSA during sleep.
