“…No observational evidence directly addressing the question was found. Meta-analysis of observational studies suggested that patients with obstructive sleep apnea or related disorders were more likely to sustain atrial fibrillation (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.36 to 1.69) or hypoxemia (WMD − 3.8%, 95% CI − 5.4% to − 2.2%) [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59]. The latter outcome might not be clinically important, whereas the summary certainty in the evidence was very low due to risk of bias (non-controlled confounders in cohort studies), imprecision, statistical and conceptual heterogeneity (differences in definition of sleep apnea and method of diagnosis) (Supplementary Table 6).…”

“…Vasquez and Hoddinott hypothesized that if patients are not used to breathing with their CPAP device, air might be forced inside the gastrointestinal tract causing bowel distension and pressure on the newly formed, vulnerable anastomosis [29]. However, other studies state that the risk of anastomotic leakage is not increased in patients who use a CPAP mask [16,30]. With regard to sleeve gastrectomy and positive airway pressure, no literature could be identified.…”

“…Evidence justifying postoperative ICU admission is scarce. Several studies show that routine ICU admission is not required, and continuous monitoring by means of pulse oximetry or capnography alone may be sufficient [15,16]. The American Society of Anesthesiologists has put forth recommendations for the perioperative care of patients with OSA.…”

“…The majority of patients with OSA can be safely monitored in this fashion. 76 Select higher risk patients, including males, BMI > 60, and severe OSA, may require monitoring in an ICU setting ( Figure 2). In these high-risk patients, CPAP should be strongly encouraged preoperatively to allow for accommodation of the therapy and placed relatively early in the postoperative course.…”
