– number of events per hour

less than 5

– More likely occur at home

when you are compfterable

-RERA: respiratory effort related
arousal It is a breathing disorder
characterized by obstructive
upper airway airflow reduction
(which does not meet the criteria
of apnea or hypopnea),

with the appearance of arousals
(RERAs).
