Community prevalence of positional obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine
The prevalence of positional obstructive sleep apnea (POSA) in community populations warrants further investigation. Further, more research is needed into the clinical characteristics of its subtypes such as supine predominant OSA (spOSA) and supine ...

Positional obstructive sleep apnea and cardiovascular outcomes

Sleep and Breathing
A tendency to obstruct the upper airway is markedly increased in supine sleep. Positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (POSA) occurs predominantly in the supine position. The implication of POSA in terms of future cardiovascular (CV) risk is unknown.

Positional obstructive sleep apnea

Somnologie, 2018
The severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is, in 56–75 % influenced by body position. The prevalence of positional OSA (POSA) decreases as the severity of OSA increases, and 70–80% of POSA patients have mild to moderate OSA. The literature on POSA is reviewed.

Positional Therapy for Positional Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Sleep Medicine Clinics, 2019
Positional therapy appears to be an attractive strategy for many patients with positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, under the American Academy of Sleep Medicine OSA guidelines, positional therapy is considered as only an alternative therapy, because previous research has demonstrated poor treatment tolerance and adherence.

Positional Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
Positional sleep apnea (POSA), a distinctive subtype of obstructive sleep apnea, underscores the critical influence of a patient's sleeping position on the severity of their condition. In the management of POSA, compliance with positional therapy (PT) is paramount, as it wields a profound impact on the treatment's efficacy and the overall alleviation ...

Body position and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2003
In adults, influence of body position on the occurrence of respiratory events during sleep is recognized, and increased numbers of respiratory events occur when the supine position is assumed.1-4 In 1985, Orr et al. showed that body position did not influence respiratory events during sleep in children.5 Recently, Fernandes do Prado et al.

Efficacy of sleep position modification to treat positional obstructive sleep apnea

Sleep Medicine, 2015
To assess the feasibility and efficacy of sleep position modification in preventing supine sleep and improving sleep-disordered breathing and relevant clinical outcomes in positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.Eighty-six consecutive participants with moderate positional OSA on routine diagnostic polysomnography underwent a randomized ...
