Intermittent hypoxia index: a new indicator for assessing the degree of intermittent hypoxia in obstructive sleep apnea
This study demonstrates that IHI calculated using NLAS covers various dimensions of IH indices in OSA patients undergoing multi-channel sleep monitoring. It correlates with parameters such as T90, LSpO<sub>2</sub>, and ODI. Independent of existing IH assessment indices, IHI holds promise as a new comprehensive assessment index for evaluating the degree of nocturnal IH in OSA.
