Question: 1
A commercial driver treated for severe obstructive sleep apnea asks the sleep programme to confirm
that they are fit to return to full duties. The download shows good use, and the patient reports feeling
much better.
What should the evaluation rest on?

A. Objective evidence of adequate use and control, since fitness turns on both together
B. The absence of any incident since therapy started, that being the outcome of interest
C. The number of hours of use alone, since adherence determines the outcome and is objectively
recorded
D. The patient's own report of improvement, sleepiness being a subjective experience

B. Expiratory relief is offered only on auto-adjusting devices and bilevel only at fixed settings
C. Expiratory relief drops the pressure briefly at the start of exhalation and then restores it

Answer: C

Question: 3
A run of epochs shows clear stage R at its start and at its end, with rapid eye movements and minimal
chin tone. Between them, several epochs show the same low-amplitude mixed-frequency background

How are the intervening epochs staged?

A. Stage N2, because the epochs lie between two periods of another stage
B. Stage R, because the background and the minimal chin tone continue
C. Stage W, because the absence of eye movement suggests quiet wakefulness
