Cross-sectional study on exercise capacity in obese patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
Severe OSAS, as a severe complication of obesity, further exacerbates the decline in exercise capacity among obese patients, with the extent of impairment positively correlated with AHI values.CPET can be used to assess cardiopulmonary function in patients with obesity and OSAS. Early intervention can be carried out for obese patients with severe OSAS who show a downward trend in cardiopulmonary exercise indicators.
