Overview
Sleep-related hypoventilation is characterized by decreased respiration episodes, correlated with high CO2 levels and low levels of hemoglobin oxygen saturation. The cause for this condition can be idiopathic, congenital or associated with another medical condition. Moreover, the severity is classified according to the levels of hypoxemia and hypercarbia.[1]
Differential Diagnosis
- Lung diseases
- Skeletal malformations
- Neuromuscular disorders
- Sleep-related hypoxemia
- Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea
- Central sleep apnea[1]
Risk Factors
- Central nervous system depressants intake (e.g. benzodiazepines, opioid, alcohol)
- Hypothiroidism
- Neuromuscular or chest wall disorder
- Pulmonary disorder[1]
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
Prognosis
Poor prognostic factors include:
- Central nervous system depressants intake (e.g. benzodiazepines, opioid, alcohol)
- Hypothiroidism
- Neuromuscular or chest wall disorder
- Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
- Spinal cord injury
- Diaphragmatic paralysis
- Myasthenia gravis
- Lambert-Eaton syndrome
- Toxic or metabolic myopathies
- Postpolio syndrome
- Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome[1]
Diagnostic Criteria

(Note: In the absence of objective measurement of CO2, persistent low levels of hemoglobin oxygen saturation unassociated with apneic/hypopneic events may indicate hypoventilation.)
