Abstract:
The incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is higher in pregnancy than in non-pregnancy,and obesity is a major risk factor.OSA in pregnancy can lead to multiple organ dysfunction and is associated with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy,gestational diabetes mellitus,premature birth,and fetal growth restriction. Therefore,early screening and diagnosis are essential for the prevention and treatment of OSA in pregnancy.
