Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Hypercapnia

    a clinical manifestation of abnormal increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in arterial blood.
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

    a disorder characterized by recurrent episodic disruptions of breathing during sleep. it is caused by the intermittent relaxation of pharyngeal muscles leading to the narrowing or complete blockage of the upper airway. this results in compensatory arousal from sleep to breathe again. an anatomically narrow airway from body habitus or enlarged pharyngeal structures may also predispose to obstruction. clinical presentation usually includes snoring, daytime sleepiness, difficulty concentrating and fatigue. clinical course may progress to chronic hypoxemia with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
