摘要
Based on available population-based studies, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) associated with accompanying daytime sleepiness affects 3% to 7% of adult men and 2% to 5% of adult women in the general population. In some population subsets, like obese or older people, this prevalence is even higher. The health risk in OSA patients shows a strong association with acute cardiovascular events such as stroke, myocardial infarction and nocturnal sudden death. And with chronic conditions such as coronary artery disease,
