Синдром обструктивного апноэ сна является одним из наиболее распространённых нарушений дыхания во время сна и рассматривается как важный фактор риска сердечно-сосудистых и метаболических заболеваний.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель исследования</title><p>Цель исследования. Оценка выявляемости синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна на основании анализа клинических данных стационарных пациентов, результатов полисомнографических исследований и анкетирования врачей первичной медико-санитарной помощи.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Проведён ретроспективный описательный анализ официальных статистических данных по регистрации случаев синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна в Ошской области Кыргызской Республики и городе Ош, и выписки из истории болезней 152 пациентов с диагнозом синдром обструктивного апноэ сна, госпитализированных в пульмонологическое отделение Ошской межобластной клинической больницы за 2020-2024 гг. У 71 пациента проанализированы результаты полисомнографического исследования, выполненного в частных медицинских центрах. Дополнительно проведено анкетирование 78 врачей первичной медико-санитарной помощи для оценки уровня информированности и особенностей диагностики синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Анализ статистических данных показал, что официальная регистрация синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна в регионе остаётся низкой, что может свидетельствовать о недостаточной выявляемости заболевания. Среди обследованных пациентов преобладали лица старших возрастных групп (63,2 ± 12,7 года) с повышенным индексом массы тела (медиана 35 [32-38] кг/м²). У большинства пациентов выявлена высокая распространённость сопутствующих заболеваний, включая хроническую обструктивную болезнь лёгких (90,8 %), ожирение (90,1 %), гипертоническую болезнь (75,0 %) и ишемическую болезнь сердца (69,1 %). По данным полисомнографии медиана индекса апноэ-гипопноэ составила 18 [10-35,5] эпизодов/час, медиана индекса десатурации – 32,0 [14,3-46,6] эпизодов/час, при этом у большинства пациентов выявлены умеренная и тяжёлая степени синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна. Результаты анкетирования показали, что 63 % врачей не используют скрининговые опросники Epworth и STOP-BANG, а 82 % не направляют пациентов на полисомнографическое исследование.</p></sec><sec><title>Вывод</title><p>Вывод. Низкая выявляемость синдрома обструктивного апноэ сна в регионе обусловлена как клиническими особенностями заболевания, так и недостаточным использованием скрининговых инструментов и специализированных методов диагностики.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Relevance</title><p>Relevance. Obstructive Sleep Apnea is one of the most common sleep-related breathing disorders and is considered an important risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.</p></sec><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective. To assess the detection rate of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome based on the analysis of clinical data of hospitalized patients, polysomnographic findings, and a survey of primary health care physicians.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. A retrospective descriptive analysis of official statistical data on the registration of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in the Osh region of the Kyrgyz Republic and Osh city was conducted, along with a review of medical records of 152 patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome who were hospitalized in the pulmonology department of the Osh Interregional Clinical Hospital during 2020–2024. Polysomnography results from 71 patients, obtained in private medical centers, were analyzed. Additionally, a survey of 78 primary care physicians was conducted to assess awareness and diagnostic practices regarding obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. The analysis showed that the official registration of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in the region remains low, indicating underdiagnosis. The study population was predominantly older adults (63.2 ± 12.7 years) with elevated body mass index (median 35 [32–38] kg/m²). A high prevalence of comorbidities was observed, including Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (90.8 %), Obesity (90.1 %), Hypertension (75.0 %), and Coronary Heart Disease (69.1 %). According to polysomnography, the median apnea-hypopnea index was 18 (10-35.5) events/hour, and the median desaturation index was 32.0 (14.3–46.6) events/hour; most patients had moderate to severe disease. Survey results showed that 63 % of physicians do not use Epworth and STOP-BANG screening questionnaires, and 82 % do not refer patients for polysomnography.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p>Conclusions. The low detection rate of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in the region is associated with clinical characteristics of the disease and insufficient use of screening tools and specialized diagnostic methods.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>синдром обструктивного апноэ сна (СОАС)</kwd><kwd>нарушения дыхания во сне</kwd><kwd>полисомнография</kwd><kwd>выявляемость</kwd><kwd>первичная медико-санитарная помощь</kwd><kwd>коморбидность</kwd><kwd>сердечно-сосудистый риск.</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>obstructive sleep apnea syndrome</kwd><kwd>sleep-disordered breathing</kwd><kwd>polysomnography</kwd><kwd>detection rate</kwd><kwd>primary health care</kwd><kwd>comorbidity</kwd><kwd>cardiovascular risk.</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Iannella, G., Pace, A., Bellizzi, M.
