摘要
阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征(obstructive sleep apnea syndrome,OSAS)以睡眠期反复发作的呼吸暂停或低通气导致的低氧血症和高碳酸血症为特点。近期研究表明OSAS患者常常患有高血压,而其中往往有很大一部分患者发展成难治性高血压,本文将OSAS在难治性高血压发病机制中的可能作用与防治作一综述。
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS) is characterized as repeated apnea and hypopnea events causing intermittent hypoxemia and hypercapnia during sleep. Recent researches have demonstrated that OSAS patients are often accompanied with hypertension and some of them can develop into resistant hypertension(RH). This article reviews the possible role OSAS in the development of RH as well as the prevention and treatment of RH associated with OSAS.
