Similarly, each abnormally low breathing event is called a hypopnea.

Similarly, total energy intake and late-night snack energy intake were significantly correlated with apnea-hypopnea index.

Patients who experienced 5 or more instances of apnea or hypopnea per hour were diagnosed with clinically important sleep apnea.

Also, snoring indicates airflow and can be used during hypopneas to determine whether the hypopnea may be an obstructive apnea.

- Slow or shallow breathing
- Hypopnea (or hypopnoea in British English) is a medical term for a disorder which involves episodes of overly shallow breathing or an abnormally low respiratory rate...
- Decreased breathing with at least 50% reduction in air flow.
- An episode of abnormally slow or shallow respiration during sleep that lasts longer than 10 seconds. Hypopnea differs from apnea in that some airflow is present.
- A reduction or obstruction in nocturnal breathing for at least 10 seconds results in decrease in blood oxygen level and disrupts sleep.
- Episode of decreased rate and depth of breathing
- A respiratory episode where there is partial obstruction of the airway lasting greater than 10 seconds. Also called partial apnea or hypo-apnea.
- Is a reduction of airflow lasting 10 or more seconds measured on the sleep study by a 30 percent reduction in airflow associated with a drop in oxygen level by 4 percent. Hypopneas have the same clinical significance as an apnea.
- Shallow or excessively slow breathing usually caused by partial closure of the upper airway during sleep, leading to disruption of sleep.
