- W2602435240 abstract "Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is in sleep clinic populations linked to hypertension, cardiovascular disease and increased mortality. This study sought to explore if men and women in primary care with a diagnosed hypertension and a self-rated high risk for OSA had more cardiovascular signs and risk factors compared to their counterparts with low risk and if those with high risk for OSA had more sleep-related symptoms. Methods Cross sectional design, all 480 hypertensive primary care patients underwent clinical examinations and filled in questionnaires. The Berlin sleep apnea questionnaire (BSAQ) was used to assess risk for OSA. Results Seventy-one percent of the men and 61% of the women had high risk for OSA. High-risk men and women had higher BMI and more often an increased waist circumference. Both reported less moderate physical activity and had more often elevated triglycerides. Men with high risk had more often reduced levels of HDL cholesterol and suffered from IHD. High-risk women used more diuretics. Blood pressure, subclinical organ damage, arrhythmias, or diabetes did not differ between high-risk and low-risk patients of any gender. Conclusion There were few differences regarding cardiovascular signs and risk factors associated with high OSA risk. Using self-rated high risk for OSA in secondary prevention for cardiovascular disease may not help healthcare personnel to identify cardiovascular signs and risk factors among hypertensive primary care patients. Keywords: hypertension; obstructive sleep apnea; cardiovascular risk factors; excessive daytime sleepiness; depressive symptoms.
