Phenotypic Characterisation of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Acute Coronary Syndrome
A high prevalence of OSA in a mostly non-sleepy population with ACS was identified, highlighting a gross underdiagnosis of OSA among cardiovascular patients. The limitations of OSA screening questionnaires highlight the need for new models of OSA screening as part of cardiovascular risk management. A range of inconsistent abnormalities were observed in measures of vascular structure and function, and these appear to be largely explained by confounding factors. Further research is required to elucidate biomarkers for the presence and impact of OSA in ACS patients.
