- Post COVID-19 syndrome often results in ongoing symptoms like dyspnoea (shortness of breath) and fatigue, hindering social and work reintegration.
- A study analyzed the effects of Spa rehabilitation on these symptoms in 187 post COVID-19 patients, measuring symptom changes and examining potential influencing clinical characteristics.
- Results showed that 88.2% of patients experienced dyspnoea improvement while 80.6% found relief from both dyspnoea and fatigue, with significant positive changes on specific assessment scales indicating improvement in physical limitations.
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two chronic diseases that afflict many individuals worldwide with negative effects on health that may overlap in Overlap Syndrome (OS). The aim of our study was to investigate the differences in mortality between OSAS alone and OS and the risk factors involved.
Methods: The study was conducted on patients with OSAS or OS diagnosis that completed 15-year follow-up between 2005 and 2023.
Background and Aim: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is an extremely common disorder with a high impact on morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to compare overlap syndrome (OS) and obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) and to highlight and understand the differences between them. Material and Methods: The study was conducted retrospectively on 132 subjects selected by consecutive sampling from those attending our unit for suspected SDB.
