La majorité des arrêts respiratoires nocturnes sont de type obstructif et on parle de syndrome d'apnées obstructives du sommeil (SAOS). [...] Tous les sujets avec SAOS ne sont pas obèses mais ce caractère est présent dans plus de 2/3 des cas. 9, record 1, French, - syndrome%20d%27apn%C3%A9es%20obstructives%20du%20sommeil

syndrome d'apnée obstructive du sommeil : Le terme «syndrome d'apnée obstructive du sommeil» est à éviter. On privilégie «syndrome des apnées obstructives du sommeil» et «syndrome d'apnées obstructives du sommeil», car ce sont les apnées répétées qui constituent le syndrome. 10, record 1, French, - syndrome%20d%27apn%C3%A9es%20obstructives%20du%20sommeil
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Selon un groupe de spécialistes qui a étudié la pose de prothèse pour le syndrome d'apnées obstructives du sommeil, il est plus approprié de parler de SAHOS que de SAOS puisque le syndrome est défini par la présence d'épisodes d'apnée, mais aussi d'hypopnée. 10, record 1, French, - syndrome%20d%27apn%C3%A9es%20obstructives%20du%20sommeil
