Table 3. Intra-position comparison of the apnoea indices (events/hour) between apnoea types (N=26).

p-value
Body Position Index Type Mean (95% CI)* v. OAI v. CAI
OAI 53.10 (44.75 - 61.44) - -
Lateral CAI 11.82 (3.48 - 20.17) <0.001 -
MAI 15.06 (6.71 - 23.40) <0.001 0.591
OAI 43.58 (36.02 - 51.13) - -
Supine CAI 23.82 (16.26 - 31.37) <0.001 -
MAI 32.09 (24.53 - 39.64) 0.035 0.129

CI = confidence interval

OAI = obstructive apnoea index

CAI = central apnoea index

MAI = mixed apnoea index

* Apnoea index units in events/hour.

Random-effects Generalised Least Squares regression with p<0.05 considered significant.
