All Topics
Respiratory
Apneas: obstructive, central, mixed
Available contentApneas are a near-complete drop in airflow. Effort channels tell the type apart.
Respiratory
Hypopneas & RERAs
Available contentPartial airflow reductions tied to desaturation or arousal, and effort-related arousals.
Respiratory
Cheyne-Stokes breathing
Available contentCrescendo–decrescendo breathing alternating with central apneas or hypopneas.
Respiratory
Hypoventilation
Available contentA sustained rise in CO2 during sleep, confirmed on a reliable CO2 channel rather than oximetry.
Respiratory
Flow limitation without arousal
Available contentFlattened inspiration that on its own does not meet criteria for a scored respiratory event.
Respiratory
Desaturation without an airflow event
Available contentAn oxygen drop that appears while airflow and effort channels stay unchanged.
Cardiac / EKG
Common EKG rhythms
Available contentRecognize normal rhythm and common arrhythmias seen during studies.

PLMS with an associated arousal
Available contentDetail from a qualifying series • NREM example
Movement
Bilateral leg movement
Available contentLeft and right onsets are 1 second apart
Movement
Respiratory-associated leg activity
Available contentLeg burst overlaps the end of a respiratory event
Movement
Alternating leg muscle activation
Available contentALMA pattern • Rapid bursts switch between legs
Movement
Hypnagogic foot tremor
Available contentHFT pattern • Repeating bursts in one leg
Movement
Fragmentary myoclonus pattern
Available contentBrief, irregular EMG potentials • Enlarged 10-second view
