BRPT 6 questions with verified answers
1 Ans✓✓✓ When performing a PAP titration on a 10-year old, how
many minutes of unambiguous snoring should be observed before
increasing CPAP?
10 uv/mm Ans✓✓✓ When recording a PSG on a 5 year-old, the EEG
and EOG are being recorded with a sensitivity of 7 uv/mm. The
technologist notes that the amplitude generated from the EEG and EOG
electrode derivations is too high to clearly see the activity and causing
waveforms to square off. What sensitivity adjustment would be
appropriate?
12.8 min Ans✓✓✓ Calculate the mean sleep latency based on the
following MSLT sleep latency values
Nap 1 20 minutes
Nap 2 15 minutes
Nap 3 2 minutes
Nap 4 7 minutes
Nap 5 20 minutes
15 minutes Ans✓✓✓ According to RECOMMENDED guidelines, when
titration supplemental oxygen the interval required between changes
should be no shorter than:
, 3 consecutive epochs of Stage N1 Ans✓✓✓ Following RECOMMENDED
guidelines, which of the following would be an appropriate time to end
an MWT trial?
3 RERAs Ans✓✓✓ According to RECOMMENDED guidelines for patients
< 12 years, CPAP should be increased after observing at least how many
RERAs:
3 seconds Ans✓✓✓ According to RECOMMENDED guidelines, an
arousal during stage R must be accompanied by an increase in
submental EMG last at least:
30 cm H2O Ans✓✓✓ According to RECOMMENDED guidelines for a
bilevel IPAP titration, the maximum IPAP for a patient ≥ 12 years should
be:
32/hr Ans✓✓✓ Calculate the AHI using the following data:
Total recording time: 8.5 hours
Total sleep time: 6.0 hours
Obstructive apneas: 55
Mixed apneas: 27
Hypopneas: 110
Respiratory arousals: 199
