Abstract

We studied changes in heart rate (HR) and skin conductance (SC) in 20 subjects with sleep apnea syndrome (SAS). Skin conductance was recorded at the second and fourth finger of the right hand. One-way analysis of variance of the means was calculated at 5-second intervals, in two conditions: [1] in from 15s before to 15s after the subject stopped breathing, and [2] in between 15s before and 30s after the subject resumed breathing. There were marked changes in heart rate (P<0.001) and skin conductance (P<0.05) during both of these periods.
