Obstructive sleep apnea: implications for cardiac and vascular disease. (2003, background): “Approximately 1 in 5 adults has at least mild OSA (apnea-hypopnea index, 5-15), and 1 in 15 adults has at least moderate OSA (apnea-hypopnea index, 15-30).(6) Other measures of the severity of sleep apnea include the severity of oxygen desaturation and the level of daytime sleepiness.”
