We recorded cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) for the assessment of CO2-regulated alterations during apnea by means of transcranial Doppler ultrasound in a patient with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. CBFV increased up to doubled peak flow values during obstructive apneic phases. The results provide evidence for a normal CO2 regulation of CBFV leading to periodic vascular stress during the night.

D012891 Sleep Apnea Syndromes Disorders characterized by multiple cessations of respirations during sleep that induce partial arousals and interfere with the maintenance of sleep. Sleep apnea syndromes are divided into central (see SLEEP APNEA, CENTRAL), obstructive (see SLEEP APNEA, OBSTRUCTIVE), and mixed central-obstructive types.
