== Additional Info ==
*This refers to prolonged apnea that is '''life-threatening''' as a primary event. 
**There can be apneas of 30 seconds or even more with [[Cheyne-stokes respiration (periodic breathing)]], or [[Sleep apnea, obstructive]] or [[Sleep apnea, central]] -- this code does NOT refer to those because those apneas, while prolonged, are not life-threatening.
*'''Thus this is mainly a code that would be used in the fairly ''rare circumstance''''' that someone was present and directly witnessed the event and therefore we are certain that the respiratory event was either there by itself, or that the respiratory event clearly '''preceded''' cardiac arrest.  
**When someone is just found both not breathing and asystolic, without any information about which stopped first, then it is appropriate to instead code '''[[Cardiac arrest]]'''
