OBJECTIVE
The aim is to study the knowledge and attitude of medical undergraduate students regarding obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This cross-sectional study involved 324 medical undergraduate students in clinical semesters. Knowledge and attitude regarding adult OSA were assessed using the obstructive sleep apnea knowledge and attitude (OSAKA), and to evaluate the same about childhood OSA, OSAKA-KIDS was used.
RESULTS
Results showed that the study population was not informed about OSA among adults as well as kids. Most of the participants could recognize that snoring was a common symptom of adult OSA but failed to identify the association between childhood OSA and hyperactivity. The participants had a good knowledge about the pathophysiology of OSA. More than 80% of students reported that OSA is an important disorder and that these patients should be identified.
CONCLUSION
Medical undergraduates are poorly informed about OSA.
目的
旨在研究医学本科学生对阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）的认知和态度。
材料与方法
这项横断面研究纳入了324名处于临床学期的医学本科学生。使用阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停知识与态度问卷（OSAKA）评估关于成人OSA的知识和态度，使用儿童阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停知识与态度问卷（OSAKA-KIDS）评估关于儿童OSA的知识和态度。
结果
结果显示，研究人群对成人及儿童的OSA均了解不足。大多数参与者能够认识到打鼾是成人OSA的常见症状，但未能识别儿童OSA与多动之间的关联。参与者对OSA的病理生理学有较好的了解。超过80%的学生报告称OSA是一种重要疾病，这些患者应被识别出来。
结论
医学本科生对OSA的了解较少。
