Obstrüktif uyku apne sendromu

Uyku sağlığın vazgeçilemez bir parçasıdır ve uykuda solunum bozuklukları hem toplum hem de kişisel olarak ciddi sağlık problemlerine, ekonomik kayıplara yol açabilmektedir. Uyku apnesinin en sık görülen tipi obstrüktif tiptir. Obezite, ileri yaş, erkek cinsiyet ve kısa-kalın boyun yapısı gibi bazı anatomik özelliklere sahip olmak risk faktörleri oluşturmaktadır. Gündüz uyku hali, horlama ve tanıklı apneler ise ana bulgulardır. Uykuda solunum bozuklukları için tanıda altın standart yöntem polisomnografidir. Bu hastalarada gündüz aşırı uyku hali nedeniyle trafik kaza oranı yüksektir. Uyku apne sendromu çok sayıda sistemik hastalık gelişimi açısından risk oluşturmakta ve birçok kardiyovasküler hastalığın etyopatogenezi ve ilerlemesinde rol oynamaktadır. Bu nedenle bu hastalara gecikilmeden tanı konulmalı ve uygun tedavi başlanmalıdır

Obstructive sleep apnea

Sleep is a very important part of health and sleep related breathing disorders can cause serious health and economical problems for both socially and individually. The most common form of sleep apnea is obstructive type. Obesity, advanced age, male gender and anatomical disorders like short-thick neck type are common risk factors. The main symptoms are excessive daytime sleepiness, snoring and witnessed apnea. The gold standard for the diagnosis of sleep apnea is polisomnography. Traffic accidents are very common among these patients because of excessive daytime sleepiness. Sleep apnea is a risk factor for the development of many systemic diseases and it plays a major role in the etiopathogenesis and progression of cardiovascular diseases. So early diagnosis and adequate treatment should be started without any delay.
