Abstract
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a respiratory disorder characterised by episodes of apnea or hypopnea of the upper airway, recurrent during sleep. Recent evidence has indicated the existence of a relationship between metabolic disorders and exacerbation of risk of OSA. The objective is to assess the prevalence of risk of OSA in individuals with metabolic syndrome (MS). Materials and methods: Cross-sectional observational analytical study, with a sample of 300 individuals from the island of Santiago in the municipality of Santa Cruz. After obtaining informed consent, a questionnaire was applied to collect sociodemographic and clinical profile data, which allowed the diagnosis of MS and the Berlin questionnaire for OSA screening. Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics® version 20, with a significance level of 0.05. Results: it was found that 17% had MS and 29.2% were at high risk of OSA. The mean age was 42.62 years and 63.7% of the individuals were female. The relationship between OSA and MS proved to be significant (p = 0.007). On the other hand, there were no statistically significant relationships between OSA and gender (p = 0.115) and no significant differences in the mean ages (p = 0.233). Conclusion: It was found that there is a statistically significant prevalence for the risk of OSA in individuals with Metabolic Syndrome.
