Etiology

Epidemiology

  • 1-2% of population
  • 4% of middle-aged men & 2% of middle aged women
  • more common in older age
  • only a small percentage of cases are diagnosed
  • 10%-30% of adults suffer from OSA; ~60% have mild disease[69]

Pathology

History

Clinical manifestations

Laboratory

Diagnostic procedures

* MKSAP19[3] & GRS11[40] differ on indications for polysomnography;

* suspicion of OSA on the basis of snoring, hypertension, obesity, low SaO2 on room air is an indication for polysomnography per GRS11[40]
