The Comorbid between Depression and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Depression and Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are common disorders in clinical practice. There are many overlapping symptoms of depression and OSA, such as insomnia, fatigue, daytime sleepiness, and poor concentration. Each disorder can affect the other bi-directionally. A comprehensive assessment, including history taking, upper airway evaluation and sleep test, is mandatory when physicians suspect these comorbid conditions. Currently, there is no treatment guideline for comorbid depression and OSA; however, parallel treatment with the standards of each disorder should be provided to patients to achieve better therapeutic outcomes.
