Frequency and Impact of Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

The correlates and consequences of pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are poorly understood. Patients undergoing pulmonary artery catheterization within 6 months of an overnight polysomnography showing OSA were included in the present analysis. A total of 83 pa...

Zusammenfassung:	The correlates and consequences of pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are poorly understood. Patients undergoing pulmonary artery catheterization within 6 months of an overnight polysomnography showing OSA were included in the present analysis. A total of 83 patients with complete data were analyzed (no PH, n = 25 [30%]; PH, 58 [70%]; of these, 18 had a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of
