ABSTRACT

La apnea obstructiva del sueño durante los movimientos oculares rápidos del sueño (AOS REM), se define como la presencia de episodios de apnea y/o hipopnea obstructivos en la etapa del sueño REM. La epidemiología de esta patología es compleja y no existe una definición estandarizada actualmente. Aunque no se ha logrado llegar a un consenso para definir AOS REM, la evidencia señala que está asociada a factores de riesgos cardiovasculares, metabólicos y neurocognitivos de forma independiente. A pesar que su tratamiento principal es la presión positiva continua de las vías respiratorias (CPAP), los criterios de un adecuado uso de CPAP en la AOS, no son suficientes para tratar de forma adecuada la AOS REM. Es necesario estandarizar una definición universal y realizar estudios prospectivos diseñados para buscar estrategias de tratamientos específicos para la AOS REM.


Obstructive sleep apnea during rapid eye movement sleep (REM OSA) is defined as the presence of obstructive episodes of apnea and/or hypopnea in REM sleep. The epidemiology of this pathology is complex and there is currently no standardized definition. Although no consensus has been reached to define REM OSA, the evidence indicates that it is independently associated with cardiovascular, metabolic and neurocognitive risk factors. Although its main treatment is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the criteria for an adequate use of CPAP in OSA are not sufficient to adequately treat REM OSA. It is necessary to standardize a universal definition and carry out prospective studies designed to search for specific treatment strategies for REM OSA.
