Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a common health issue. This study details the methods and results of a major research effort on this condition, also reviewing other available outcome measures.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Sleep Medicine
  • Health Outcomes Research

Background:

  • Sleep disorders, particularly obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), represent a significant public health concern.
  • Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome affects a substantial portion of the population, necessitating comprehensive research into its outcomes.
  • Understanding the prevalence and impact of OSAS is crucial for developing effective management strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the methodology and findings of a prospective, multicenter outcomes research study on obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview of the research conducted by the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery regarding OSAS.
  • To summarize available outcome measures for OSAS research.

Main Methods:
