Summary
The paper discusses the connection between body position during sleep and the severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in patients, based on findings from full-night polysomnography.
Categories
Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses the impact of body position during sleep on the severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in patients.
Patient recovery and healing: The paper explores how different sleep positions can affect the severity of OSA, which can inform treatment and recovery strategies for patients.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper indirectly discusses cognitive function and memory by exploring the impact of sleep quality, which is affected by sleep position and severity of OSA, on cognitive performance.
Obesity and Weight Management: The paper mentions that patients with diagnosed OSA had statistically significantly higher BMI, indicating a link between obesity and OSA.
