Introducción: la apnea obstructiva del sueño es una patología respiratoria caracterizada por paradas de la respiración de forma repetida durante el sueño. Esta patología está relacionada con los trastornos hipertensivos, pudiendo agravarlos.
Objetivo: determinar el perfil de un paciente hipertenso bajo sospecha clínica de apnea obstructiva del sueño en el Centro de Diagnóstico y Medicina Avanzada y de Conferencias Médicas y Telemedicina (CEDIMAT) durante el periodo enero 2019 – febrero 2020.
Material y métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional-descriptivo, transversal con datos retrospectivos. Se estudiaron 38 expedientes clínicos de pacientes hipertensos de la consulta de neumología y que cumplen con criterios de sospecha clínica de apnea obstructiva del sueño.
Resultados: el rango de edad fue de 40-64 años con un 55.26 %. El 66 % son masculinos. 36.84 % son hipertensos grado I mientras que otro 34.21% tienen sus niveles tensionales normales. El 68.41 % son obesos y un 26.32 % están en sobrepeso. 63.16 % se clasifican como IV en la escala de Mallampati.
Conclusión: el perfil de los pacientes hipertensos bajo sospecha clínica de apnea obstructiva del sueño es: sexo masculino, adultez media, obesidad, escala de mallampati categoría IV y el uso de múltiples fármacos en el control de la hipertensión.
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea is a respiratory disease characterized by repeated stops of breathing during sleep. This pathology is related to hypertensive disorders, which can aggravate them. Objective: To determine the profile of a hypertensive patient under clinical suspicion of obstructive sleep apnea at the Center for Diagnosis and Advanced Medicine and Medical and Telemedicine Conferences (CEDIMAT) during the period January 2019 - February 2020. Material and methods: An observational study of descriptive, cross-sectional type with retrospective data. Thirty-eight clinical records of hypertensive patients from the pulmonology clinic and who meet the criteria for clinical suspicion of obstructive sleep apnea were studied. Results: The age range was 40-64 years with 55.26%. 66% are male. 36.84% are grade I hypertensive while another 34.21% have normal blood pressure levels. 68.41% are obese and 26.32% are overweight. 63.16% are classified as IV on the mallampati scale. Conclusion: The profile of hypertensive patients under clinical suspicion of obstructive sleep apnea is; male sex, middle adulthood, obesity, category IV of mallampati scale and the use of multiple drugs in the control of hypertension.
