Surprising results after surgery - car54 - 09-15-2017 I was put under yesterday for about 1.5 hours for a hernia surgery. At night I had to sleep on my back loaded up with oxycodone. I was expecting my RDI to be sky high but it was only 2.11!

RE: Surprising results after surgery - Kryogen - 09-15-2017 your pressure was enough to keep the airway open. RE: Surprising results after surgery - mrkdilkington - 09-15-2017 Oxycodone reduces REM and slow-wave sleep. Breathing events typically take place during these two stages of sleep. So you had less events because the quality of your sleep architecture was lower. RE: Surprising results after surgery - trish6hundred - 09-15-2017 Hi car54, I hope you have a speedy recovery. |
