Associations of Obstructive Sleep Apnea With Atrial Fibrillation and Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Treatment: A Review

JAMA cardiology, 2018
Importance Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common clinically significant breathing abnormality during sleep. It is highly prevalent among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and it promotes arrhythmogenesis and impairs treatment efficacy ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Epidemiology of Sleep Apnea [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
The most common sleep disorders in the clinic are those falling into the category of sleep-disordered breathing, which comprises a group of conditions characterized by intermittent cessations (apneas) or reductions (hypopneas) in respiration during sleep.

Sleep Apnea and Sleepiness

2014
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is often observed in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), although many subjects do not report the symptom. EDS is associated with increased healthcare utilization and could be one of the main determinants of an increased accident risk. Its possible role as a marker of cardiometabolic risk is debated.

Obstructive sleep apnea

Disease-a-Month, 1994
The high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has only recently been appreciated, in part because the symptoms and signs of chronic sleep disruption are often overlooked in spite of their debilitating consequences. They typically develop insidiously during a period of years.

Central Sleep Apnea

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1985
Central sleep apnea is a disorder characterized by apneic episodes during sleep with no associated ventilatory effort. More commonly than not these apneas are seen in patients who also have obstructive and mixed events. Although patients with this disorder frequently complain of insomnia and depression, frank hypersomnolence is rarely encountered.

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common disorder in the population-a review on the epidemiology of sleep apnea.

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2015
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) defined at an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥5 was a mean of 22% (range, 9-37%) in men and 17% (range, 4-50%) in women in eleven published epidemiological studies published between 1993 and 2013.

Obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2003
Obstructive sleep apnea is an increasingly well-recognized disease characterized by periodic collapse of the upper airway during sleep. This leads to either complete or partial obstruction of the airway, resulting in apneas, hypopneas, or both. This disorder causes daytime somnolence, neurocognitive defects, and depression.

Sleep Apnea and Hypertension

2007
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common form of sleep-disordered breathing and frequently coexists with obesity. Almost 15 million Americans are affected by this disorder. This prevalence is likely increasing, given the current epidemic of obesity.

Sleep Apnea and Stroke

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2014
Clinical evidence has established that sleep apnea is a risk factor for stroke. Patients with stroke have a high prevalence of sleep apnea that may have preceded or developed as a result of the stroke. Well-established concurrent stroke risk factors for stroke like hypertension and atrial fibrillation respond favorably to the successful treatment of ...

Central Sleep Apnea

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2005
Central sleep apnea (CSA) is characterized by the periodic occurrence of apnea caused by loss of ventilatory motor output. CSA is often discussed as a minor variant of obstructive sleep apnea.However, this view obscures the critical contribution of CSA as an important manifestation of breathing instability in a variety of conditions with diverse causes.
