Abstract
- Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) in adults is a common sleep-breathing disorder closely associated with hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other health concerns. Despite its widespread impact on global health, the screening and diagnosis of OSAHS is still not widely available in clinical practice. In this context, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has recently released updated recommendations for adult OSAHS screening to help more people identify and treat potential sleep-breathing disorders. This article interprets the latest recommendations and consider the practical situation in China, providing reference for OSAHS screening of adults in China.
