    Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) obstructs the airway during sleep, potentially causing significant health issues. This paper details OSA assessment and its wide-ranging effects.

    Area of Science:

    • Respiratory Medicine
    • Sleep Medicine
    • Clinical Diagnosis

    Background:

    • Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent condition characterized by airway obstruction during sleep.
    • While often underestimated, OSA can lead to substantial morbidity and impact patient quality of life.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinical presentation and diagnostic methods for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).
    • To illustrate the multifaceted consequences of OSA through a case study.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of the condition of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).
    • Description of diagnostic procedures employed in a respiratory diseases unit.
    • Presentation of a case study detailing patient outcomes.

    Main Results:
