Moreover, apneic/hypopneic events were inversely related to memory and learning performance among the entire sample.
متن کاملPreoxygenation of the morbidly obese with obstructive sleep apnea.
Morbid obesity is associated with a more rapid decrease in oxygen saturation during apnea following induction of anesthesia, compared to patients who have normal weight1. This is particularly hazardous as morbid obesity, complicated by obstructive sleep apnea, may be associated with an increased risk of difficult tracheal intubation and difficult face mask ventilation2. These morbidly obese pat...
متن کاملSleep apnea in morbidly obese patients: prevalence and clinical predictivity.
BACKGROUND Little is known about the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) in morbidly obese patients and whether such patients show peculiar clinical findings that may make it easier to suspect and diagnose OSAHS.

It has long been appreciated that sleep apnea results in poor quality sleep, and that poor quality sleep is associated with daytime fatigue and decrements in performance. However, the relationship between sleep apnea and poor perfor...
