“…Major risk factors for OSA include male gender, obesity (body mass index >35 kg/m 2 ), wide neck (neck circumference > 40 cm), crowded oropharynx, and craniofacial abnormalities affecting the upper airway [62]. A four-question questionnaire known as “STOP” has been validated in screening perioperative patients for OSA [63]. Patients at risk for OSA should be asked the following four questions:

Snore: Do you snore loudly?

Tired: Do you often feel tired, fatigued, or sleepy during the day?

Observed: Has anyone observed you stop breathing during your sleep?

Blood pressure: Do you have or are you being treated for hypertension?

Pre-operative pulmonary assessment for patients with hip fracture

Hip fracture is a common injury among the elderly. Although patients who receive hip fracture surgery carry the best functional recovery compared to other treatment modalities, the presence of postoperative pulmonary complications, such as atelectasis, pneumonia, and pulmonary thromboembolism, may contribute to increased length of hospital stay, perioperative morbidity, and mortality. This review aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for preoperative assessment and perioperative strategies to reduce the risk of pulmonary complications after hip fracture surgery. Clinical assessment and basic laboratory results are sufficient to stratify the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Well-documented risk factors for pulmonary complications include advanced age, poor general health status, current infections, pre-existing cardiopulmonary diseases, hypoalbuminemia, and impaired renal function. Apart from optimizing the patient's medical conditions, interventions such as lung expansion maneuvers and thromboprophylaxis have been proven to be effective in reducing the risk of pulmonary complications after hip fracture surgery.

“…In the 2014 survey, we included the STOPBANG questionnaire and measured neck circumference to the nearest centimeter using a tape measure by trained field workers to screen individuals at high risk of OSA 21. Questions in STOPBANG comprised eight binary variables, including snoring, daytime tiredness, observed apneas, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI) (>35 kg/m 2 ), age (>50 years), neck circumference (>40 cm), and sex (men).…”

“…Questions in STOPBANG comprised eight binary variables, including snoring, daytime tiredness, observed apneas, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI) (>35 kg/m 2 ), age (>50 years), neck circumference (>40 cm), and sex (men). Intermediate or high risk of OSA was defined as three or more of the eight items scored positive 21. Previous validation studies among different populations, including Chinese, showed a high sensitivity (91–94%) to detect OSA 22.…”

ObjectiveTo systematically examine the association between alcohol intake and likelihood of having probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (pRBD) 6 years later.MethodsThe study included 11,905 participants (mean age: 47.7 years) of the Kailuan Study, free of stroke, cancer, Parkinson disease, dementia, and head injury in 2006. We determined pRBD using a validated RBD questionnaire–Hong Kong in 2012. Amounts and types of alcohol intake were collected with questionnaire. Participants were categorized into: nondrinkers, light (women: 0–0.4 servings/day; men: 0–0.9 servings/day), moderate (women: 0.5–1.0 servings/day; men: 1–2 servings/day), and heavy drinkers(women: >1 serving/day; men: >2 servings/day). To examine the alcohol‐pRBD relationship, we used logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), adjusting for demographic characteristics, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, physical activity, body mass index, and plasma concentrations of lipids and urate.ResultsCompared with nondrinkers, current drinkers had a 23% higher likelihood of having pRBD (adjusted OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.07–1.59). Both moderate (adjusted OR: 1.53, 95% CI 1.01–2.30) and heavy drinkers (adjusted OR: 1.29, 95% CI 1.00–1.66), but not light drinkers (adjusted OR: 1.16, 95% CI 0.94–1.44), had a significantly higher likelihood of having pRBD, relative to nondrinkers. There was a nonsignificant trend between consumption of each individual alcoholic beverages (i.e., beer, wine, or hard liquor) and higher likelihood of having pRBD (adjusted ORs ranged from 1.11 to 1.49).ConclusionsAlcohol consumption was associated with a higher likelihood of having pRBD. Future prospective studies with clinically confirmed RBD, large sample size for information on types of alcoholic beverage are warranted.

“…18 Longitudinal data collected by the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort Study over a 4-year period have shown that weight change is an important determinant of disease progression and regression. 5,8,14 Compared with participants with a stable weight, those that have a 10% increase in their weight had a 32% increase in their AHI and a six-fold risk of developing moderate to severe OSAHS.…”

“…It was an outcome of the Conference on Sleep in Primary Care in April 1996 in Berlin, Germany. 13,14 It includes 11 questions organized into the three categories, 5 questions related to snoring and the cessation of breathing in category I, 4 questions related to daytime sleepiness in category II, 1 question about high blood pressure, and 1 question regarding BMI in category III. When two of three categories are classified as positive for a patient, the patient is rated as being at high risk of having OSAHS.…”

Prevalence of components of metabolic syndrome in pregnant women with obstructive sleep apnoea hypopnoea syndrome

Background: Obstructive sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) related cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidaemia which together are commonly known as metabolic syndrome (MS) is often overlooked in pregnancy. OSAHS is known to cause higher maternal morbidity and bad foetal outcome. Aim was to study the prevalence of components of MS among third trimester pregnant women with OSAHS.Methods: A total of 100 cases and 100 controls each amongst third trimester pregnant females admitted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Government Medical College, Kozhikode, Kerala, India were enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent a thorough clinical, anthropometric, obstetrical examination and biochemical tests such as complete blood count, blood sugar and lipid profile. The parameters were compared between cases and controls.Results: OSAHS positive pregnant women had a higher prevalence of elevated systolic (P=0.01) and diastolic (P=0.002) blood pressure, abnormal fasting (P<0.0001) and post prandial (P=0.02) blood sugar, abnormal cholesterol (P=0.006) and triglyceride levels (P<0.001), and abnormally low HDL levels (P<0.001).Conclusions: This study showed that metabolic syndrome was highly prevalent among OSAHS positive third trimester pregnancy (52%) versus OSAHS negative (8%) pregnant women.
