[Obstructive sleep apnea: clinical significance and correlations with arterial hypertension].
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs rather frequently. It often combines with arterial hypertension (AH) and contributes to development and course of such severe conditions as stroke, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, sudden death in sleep. Lack of adequate knowledge of relevant symptoms, cause-effect relationships leads to mistakes in management of patients. AH patients with OSA should receive combined treatment including hypotensive drugs and correctors of sleep respiratory disorders.
