A patient with obstructive sleep apnea undergoing bariatric surgery.
279 A 27-year-old man presented for sleep evaluation prior to his bariatric surgery. He was obese (weight 310 lb, BMI 44.5 kg/m2), and he reported snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness; his wife witnessed apneas. A split-night polysomnogram was performed, which documented severe obstructive sleep apnea with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of 44/h and a required positive airway pressure of 15 c...
متن کاملRe: Sexual function in female patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea is defined as repetitive (≥5/hour) partial or complete cessation of breathing during sleep. Whereas obstructive sleep apnea is often considered to be associated with sexual problems in men, studies concerning effects of obstructive sleep apnea on female sexual function and distress are sparse. AIM To investigate sexual dysfunction and sexual distress in fe...

First, hypertension(3) is known to be an important factor in the development of OSA.(4) There are widely available data revealing the benefits of BS in blood pressure control. In that study,(1) we found that hypertension was not considered a predictive factor in their group of patients. This might have been due to the fact that patients being treated for hypertension or not were grouped togethe...

sleep apnea, and particularly obstructive sleep apnea, is a common disorder that is characterized by a repetitive, partial or complete cessation of air flow, associated with oxyhemoglobin desaturation and an increased effort to breath. in recent years, orthodontists have been interested and involved in the management of this disorder since it has been shown that oral appliance therapy can be an...
متن کاملImmediate postarousal sleep dynamics: an important determinant of sleep stability in obstructive sleep apnea.
Arousability from sleep is increasingly recognized as an important determinant of the clinical spectrum of sleep disordered breathing (SDB). Patients with SDB display a wide range of arousability. The reason for these differences is not known. We hypothesized that differences in the speed with which sleep deepens following arousals/awakenings (postarousal sleep dynamics) is a major determinant ...
