Association of obstructive sleep apnea with severity of patients hospitalized for acute asthma. Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol 2020 Feb;124(2):165-70.e4. doi: 10.1016/j.anai.2019.11.002.
Researchers investigated the association of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with acute asthma severity in a retrospective cohort study that used State Inpatient Databases from eight geographically diverse states. Outcomes examined were markers of acute severity such as mechanical ventilation use, hospital length of stay, and in-hospital mortality. The researchers found that, among patients hospitalized for acute asthma, OSA was associated with a higher risk of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation use and longer length of stay compared with those without OSA.
