Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a rapidly increasing global concern. If it remains untreated, it can lead to cardiovascular, metabolic, and psychiatric complications and may result in premature death. The efficient and effective management of OSA can have a beneficial effect and help reduce the financial burden on the health sector. There has been constant development in OSA management, and numerous options are available. The mainstay of therapy is still the conventional measures and behavioral modifications. However, in cases of failure of these modalities, surgical therapy is the only option. Numerous studies have shown that proper management of OSA has beneficial effects with good long-term outcomes.
阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)是一个在全球范围内迅速增加的问题。如果不加以治疗,它会导致心血管、代谢和精神方面的并发症,并可能导致过早死亡。对OSA进行高效且有效的管理可产生有益影响,并有助于减轻卫生部门的经济负担。OSA管理一直在不断发展,有多种选择可供使用。治疗的主要手段仍然是传统措施和行为改变。然而,在这些方法失败的情况下,手术治疗是唯一的选择。众多研究表明,对OSA进行适当管理具有有益效果和良好的长期结果。
