Abstract:
Ischemic stroke is the main cause of death and disability in adults, and its incidence is increasing year by year. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep-disordered breathing, which can increase the risk of ischemic stroke and affect the outcomes of patients. There is an increasing amount of research on the relationship between OSA and ischemic stroke. This article reviews the bidirectional relationship between OSA and ischemic stroke, the mechanism of OSA causing ischemic stroke, and the diagnosis and treatment of OSA in patients with ischemic stroke.
