The AHI is calculated by dividing the number of apnea events by the number of hours of sleep. The AHI values for adults are categorized as: [1] [2] Normal: AHI<5; Mild sleep apnea: 5≤AHI<15; Moderate sleep apnea: 15≤AHI<30; Severe sleep apnea: AHI≥30; For children, because of their different physiology, an AHI in excess of 1 is considered ...
For adults, an AHI of less than 5 is considered normal, an AHI of [5–15) is mild, [15–30) is moderate, and ≥30 events per hour characterizes severe sleep apnea. For pediatrics, an AHI of less than 1 is considered normal, an AHI of [1–5) is mild, [5–10) is moderate, and ≥10 events per hour characterizes severe sleep apnea.
To grade the severity of sleep apnea, the number of events per hour is reported as the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). An AHI of less than 5 is considered normal. An AHI of 5–15 is mild; 15–30 is moderate, and more than 30 events per hour characterizes severe sleep apnea.

The respiratory disturbance index (RDI)—or respiratory distress Index—is a formula used in reporting polysomnography (sleep study) findings. Like the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), it reports on respiratory distress events during sleep, but unlike the AHI, it also includes respiratory-effort related arousals (RERAs). [1]
