Review of modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
This study aimed to provide an overview of the diagnostic methods and treatments for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The average incidence of snoring is 40% among men and 20% among women aged 30–60 years. The average incidence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is 4% among men and 2% among women. These data are close to the incidence of diabetes and are twice as high as that of severe bronchial asthma. Currently, approximately 1 billion people have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The average incidence rates of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea among children are 27% and 1.2%–5.7%, respectively, with peak incidence recorded at the age of 2–8 years because of the hypertrophy of the tonsils and adenoids. In this study, modern diagnostic methods and treatments for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome are considered. A complex approach to patient treatment justified.
