Cost-effectiveness of split-night polysomnography and home studies in the evaluation of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Split-night polysomnography (PSG) and unattended home sleep studies have come into use as less-expensive tests for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, but their impact on cost-effectiveness of the overall evaluation and treatment is unknown. We compared the cost-effectiveness of evaluations that employ these 2 procedures with a conventional approach using full-night PSG. METHOD...

متن کامل[Split night polysomnography to titrate continuous positive airway pressure therapy in adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea].
BACKGROUND Nasal continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) in the treatment of choice for adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The diagnosis is established with polysomnography, but this study is expensive and must be repeated in those patients that require CPAP, to titrate the pressure of the therapy. Split polysomnography during one night to establish the diagnosis and titrate the pr...
متن کاملObstructive sleep apnea and the severity of coronary artery disease
Background: It has been implicated that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease including stroke, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease (CAD) and hypertension. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between OSA and severity of atherosclerosis assessed by angiography. Methods: This study included 337 patients ...
