He weighs 119 kg, is 175 cm tall (BMI of 38.9 kg·m−2), and is being investigated for “dizzy spells.” His medical problem list includes obesity, untreated hypertension, and possible obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (based on his wife's observation that “sometimes he just stops breathing” at night). A previous attempt at a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan was unsuccessful because Mr. S, startled by the onset of the loud noises made by the MRI machine, panicked and tried to get out of the MRI scanner. Upon further questioning, he admits to extreme claustrophobia, possibly the result of a protracted period of time spent in a car trunk as a child.
