  • The effect of setting sleep center on understanding obstructive sleep apnea

    ObjectiveTo investigate the knowledge and attitude of medical professionals in various regions of China on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and to find out the influence of sleep center setting on the above results.MethodsA self-designed questionnaire based on OSAKA questionnaire was designed. A total of 630 medical staff were investigated in 7 hospitals at different levels in various regions in China. The subjects were divided into two groups according to whether they had sleep center (including sleep monitoring room) or not. Survey data were analyzed.ResultsA total of 630 questionnaires were sent out, and 590 valid questionnaires were received, and the effective response rate was 93.65%. About half of those surveyed had sleep centers in the hospitals where they worked. There was no significant difference in three attitude problems and the choice of continuous positive airway pressure and surgical treatment between the two groups (all P>0.05). Subjects whose hospital had no sleep center were more prone to select weight loss (estimated parameters=0.513, P=0.046), no smoking and wine (estimated parameter=0.472, P=0.040), avoidance of overwork (estimated parameter=0.933, P=0.000), and drug (estimated parameter=0.802, P=0.000). The average correct rate of OSA knowledge was 45.59%±20.68%. Among them, the correct rate of response to treatment measures was the highest, and the correct rate of other knowledge points was poor. The average correct rate of total accuracy, symptoms and target organ damage in subjects whose hospital had sleep center was higher than that in subjects whose hospital had no sleep center, and there were significant differences (P=0.001, P=0.012, P=0.000). There was a positive correlation between the knowledge of OSA and their attitude towards OSA, treatment and further understanding of the knowledge (r=0.247, P=0.000).ConclusionIt is necessary to strengthen propaganda and education of OSA, and the establishment of sleep center is helpful for medical personnel to know more about OSA and to develop sleep medicine.
