Enhancing Obstructive Sleep Apnea Screening and Nocturia Treatment: A Quality Improvement Study
Initiation of OSA screening in a urogynecology clinic is a significant and feasible way to address nocturia and has the potential to improve symptoms. Improving rates of OSA testing and adherence to OSA treatment will require a multidisciplinary approach, while systems-level changes are needed to address inequities and other barriers to accessing treatment.
