I am confused looking backwards at two sleep studies that ruled out OSA.
First study -
AHI of 2.7
Awakening index of 22.1 (is this RDI?)
Also of note - REM stage of sleep had an AHI of 5.2
Sleep efficiency 44%
Second study
AHI of 1
RDI of 15
Supine RDI of 24
of interest based off of this article:
http://www.aasmnet.org/Resources/clinicalguidelines/OSA_Adults.pdf
I believe from this information I should be diagnosed with OSA and from the CFR I am warranted 30% because I have SERIOUS daytime hypersomnolence.
Thoughts?

AASM diagnostic criteria for OSA
According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services criteria for the positive diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea,[32] a positive test for OSA is established if either of the following criteria using the AHI or the RDI is met:
- AHI or RDI greater than or equal to 15 events per hour, or
- AHI or RDI greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 14 events per hour with documented symptoms of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS); impaired cognition; mood disorders; insomnia; or documented hypertension, ischemic heart disease, or history of stroke
I believe from this information I should be diagnosed with OSA and from the CFR I am warranted 30% because I have SERIOUS daytime hypersomnolence.
