阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停在心血管疾病患者中很常见。众所周知,心脏手术是谵妄的一个危险因素。研究表明,阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停是发生谵妄的独立危险因素。在这篇文章中,我们推测阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停如何增加心脏手术患者谵妄的风险。如果这一点得到证实,我们将有另一个目标,通过它我们可以降低这一人群的谵妄风险。
Obstructive sleep apnea is common in patients with cardiovascular disease. It is well known that cardiac surgery is a risk factor for delirium. Researchers have shown that obstructive sleep apnea is an independent risk factor for the occurrence of delirium. In this manuscript we speculate on how obstructive sleep apnea may increase the risk of delirium in patients with cardiac surgery. If this is found to be confirmed, we would have another target through which we can decrease the risk of delirium in this population.
