Sleep-Related Hypoventilation

Occurs when breathing is too shallow or slow during sleep, leading to elevated carbon dioxide and reduced oxygen. Often associated with neuromuscular or chest wall disorders, it needs careful diagnostic assessment.

This disorder involves inadequate ventilation during sleep, leading to elevated CO₂ and reduced oxygen levels. It may occur in neuromuscular disease, obesity, or chest wall disorders.

Detection requires PG or PSG with CO₂ monitoring. Stowood’s CO₂ analysis tools provide continuous, high-quality data for reliable diagnosis.
