Sleep apnoea impacts negatively on different diseases beyond the cardiovascular sphere, including a potential risk of post-operative infection.
Sleep apnoea has negative impacts on diseases beyond the cardiovascular sphere, such as post-operative infection.
Recent decades have seen the publication of numerous studies on the association between excessive sleep disordered breathing (SDB), particularly sleep apnoea, and an increase in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. These studies have used a wide range of methodologies and criteria for patient inclusion. The results have been diverse, depending on the type of cardiovascular event or risk factor investigated, the patients' cardiovascular risk, the severity or type of the SDB, and the analysis of the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular events [1].
