This review highlights the epidemiological links and arrhythmogenic mechanisms connecting obstructive sleep apnea with atrial fibrillation, emphasizing the need for diagnostic screening in routine cardiology practice.
The problem of association between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and cardiac pathology, namely, atrial fibrillation (AF) is quite relevant and multifaceted. This review presents the epidemiological aspects of OSAS and AF, discusses the main concepts of atrial arrhythmogenesis in OSAS, and describes the capabilities of diagnostic tools for searching for OSAS in the context of routine cardiological practice.
