Regarding sleep study, how many episodes of hypopnea are normal?

Answer 1

I think a pulmonologist could better answer this question, but essentially no hypopnea should be normal, the need of cpap would probably become important in association of hypopnea/apnea and hypoxia and subsequent arousals or rem sleep quality, do talk to your sleep specialist to explain the sleep report, good luck

Answer 2

Don't know, am looking for the answer. However, up to five per hour of sleep are considered nonpathological.
I had four apnea and two hypopnea episodes in five hours of sleep in an eight hour study done for research.
