摘要
OSAS is the most common and best-recognized form of SRBD. Effective treatment is available with CPAP being the treatment of choice, once the essential nonspecific measures of excluding endocrine and other treatable causes, including weight loss and avoiding sedative agents have been undertaken. The expense of CPAP apparatus and the need to use this for prolonged period may prompt some patients to evaluate other sub-optimal options. Surgical treatment will continue to be a gamble or a treatment of last resort. Whatever plan is developed, it is important that the patient be reassessed after six months and then by annual PSGs.
