Abstract:
Sleep disorder is common in patients with asthma, especially in patients with severe asthma.Sleep disorder correlates with poor asthma control and poor quality of life.Sleep disorder in asthmatic patients may be related to the circadian variation in airway physiology and airway inflammation, but may also be related to specific sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea(OSA), gastroesophageal reflux, obesity, psychological problems, etc.OSA is an independent risk factor for poor asthma control.At the same time, asthma will aggravate OSA.Treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure(CPAP)may lead to improved asthma-specific quality of life.
