在睡眠期间监测5名患有重度脊柱后凸的成人受试者。观察到几种类型的呼吸异常，包括阻塞性呼吸暂停和呼吸不足。最低的氧去饱和发生在快速眼动（REM）睡眠。在一名受试者中连续测量的动脉压在整个夜间逐渐升高，与异常呼吸相关。使用胸甲呼吸机并没有改善夜间问题。
Five adult subjects with severe kyphoscoliosis were monitored during sleep. Several types of breathing abnormalities, including obstructive apnea and hypopnea, were noted. The lowest oxygen desaturations occurred during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Arterial pressure, continuously measured in one subject, progressively increased throughout the night in association with abnormal breathing. The use of a cuirass ventilator did not improve the nocturnal problem.
