Among the variables measured during sleep testing, the AHI (apnea-hypopnea index) is one of the most important. The AHI is the sum of the number of apneas (pauses in breathing) plus the number of hypopneas (episodes of shallow breathing) that occur each hour, on average.
In patients with an AHI below 10, the test is considered negative (or normal) and no further treatment or follow-up is required.
