Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, birinci basamağa başvuran bireylerin Obstrüktif Uyku Apne Sendromu (OUAS) ve kardiyovasküler hastalık (KVH) risklerini belirlemek ve birbirinin patogenezinde etkili olduğu düşünülen iki durumun risk düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve yöntem: Araştırma tanımlayıcı ve analitik tipte bir çalışma olarak tasarlandı. Çalışmaya Denizli'deki beş farklı aile sağlığı merkezine herhangi bir nedenle başvuran toplam 204 katılımcı dahil edildi. Araştırmada kullanılan veriler, oluşturduğumuz anket sorularından, STOP-BANG ölçeğinden ve SCORE risk hesaplama sisteminden elde edildi.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların %25,5'i OUAS açısından yüksek risk grubundadır. Çalışmaya katılanların %33,4'ü KVH açısından yüksek risk taşımaktadır. Katılımcıların OUAS risk düzeyleri ile KVH risk düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki vardır. Erkek cinsiyeti, yaş, obezite, sigara kullanımı ve hipertansiyon hem OUAS hem de KVH riskini önemli ölçüde artırır.
Sonuç: Herhangi bir nedenle birinci basamağa başvuran hastaların dörtte birinin OUAS riski altında olduğu bulundu. OUAS için yüksek risk grubunda olanların çoğunluğu kardiyovasküler sistem hastalıkları içinde yüksek ve çok yüksek risk gruplarındadır. Yüksek prevalans ve önemli komplikasyonlara sahip iki hastalık olan OUAS ve KVH açısından birinci basamakta taramaların yapılması ile hem bireyin sağlık durumuna hem de toplum sağlığına büyük katkı sağlanabilir.

Identification of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and cardiovascular diseases risks in patients attending primary care and assessment of their association

Öz

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the risks of Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in individuals applying to family health care center and to evaluate the relationship between risk levels of two conditions that are thought to be effective in the pathogenesis of each other.
Materials and methods: The research was designed as a descriptive and analytical study. A total of 204 participants who applied to five different family health centers in Denizli for any reason were included in our study. The data used in the research were obtained from the survey questions we created, the STOP-BANG scale and the SCORE risk calculation system.
Results: Of the participants, 25.5% are in the high-risk group for OSAS. In total 33.4% of the participants in the study have a high risk of CVD. There is a statistically significant relationship between the OSAS risk levels and CVD risk levels of the participants. Male gender, age, obesity, smoking and hypertension significantly increase both the risk of OSAS and the risk of CVD.
Conclusion: One in four patients who applied to primary care for any reason were found to be at risk for OSAS. The majority of those in the high risk group for OSAS are in the high and very high risk groups for the cardiovascular system. Screening in primary care in terms of OSAS and CVD, two diseases with high prevalence and significant complications, can make a great contribution to both the individual's health status and public health.
