Abstract:
Objective To discuss the differences of clinical features and characteristics and features of polysomnography be‐tween elderly patients and middle‐aged patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) ,so as to provide refer‐ence for the diagnosis and individualized intervention of elderly OSAHS .Methods Totally 81 aged OSAHS cases and 123 youth OSAHS cases were analyzed in terms of general condition ,clinical manifestations and polysomnographic characteristics ,and the clin‐ical manifestations and polysomnographic difference indicators of the two groups were matched according to body mass index (BMI) .Results Most OSAHS patients were males in both groups ,with BMI and neck waist circumference in the aged group less than those in the middle‐aged group ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) ,while the bust was larger than that in the middle‐aged group ,but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0 .05);clinical symptoms of senile groups such as drowsiness ,snoring ,morning headaches ,dry mouth and nighttime awakenings were lower than the middle‐aged group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) ,and complications such as hypertension ,diabetes and other risk disease were significantly higher than those in the middle‐aged group ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05);in the aged group ,the degree of OSAHS was dominated by mild to moderate ,while the middle‐aged group ,was dominated by moderate to severe ,but the differ‐ence was not statistically significant (P>0 .05);REM AHI was more than the middle‐aged group ,the difference was statistically significant (P< 0 .05) ,AHI was less in old age group than in the middle‐aged group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05);NREMⅠ + Ⅱ stage in the aged group was more than that in the middle‐aged group(P<0 .05) ,and NREM Ⅲ + Ⅳstage ,REM period ,the average SaO2 (% ) ,MAI clear were less than those in the young group;LSAT (% ) was greater than that in the middle‐aged group ,but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0 .05) .Conclusion The incidence of typical clinical manifestations of aged OSAHS patients was lower than that in the middle‐aged group ,but high blood pressure ,diabetes and other complications prevalence were significantly higher than those in the middle‐aged group ,with similar severity of OSAHS in both groups ,there were differences PSG monitoring results with the middle‐aged group ,and the difference of REM AHI was significant .
