Presence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and especially obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a known risk factor for ischemic stroke. Additionally, SDB effects negatively on recovery after stroke. Up to one fourth of strokes are present on awakening. The link between OSA and wake-up stroke (WUS) has been suggested. We aim to determine the association between OSA and WUS in a Finnish stroke unit cohort.

醒来中风与阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停和更糟糕的早期功能结果有关

睡眠呼吸障碍 (SDB) 尤其是阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停 (OSA) 的存在是缺血性中风的已知危险因素。此外，SDB 对中风后的恢复有负面影响。醒来时出现多达四分之一的中风。已经提出 OSA 和唤醒中风 (WUS) 之间的联系。我们的目标是确定芬兰卒中单元队列中 OSA 和 WUS 之间的关联。
