Brief Summary:
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a chronic disease that lasts for at least three months and is characterized by various symptoms such as tender points, widespread pain in the musculoskeletal system, sleep disturbance and fatigue. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS) is a disease characterized by repeated upper airway obstruction during sleep. Sleep disorders negatively affect the lives of individuals. The prevalence of OSAS is between 1-5% in studies and it is more common in men than in women. Fatigue, anxiety, depression and sleep disturbance are also common in patients with fibromyalgia. Likewise, the presence of symptoms such as musculoskeletal pain in patients with OSAS suggests that these two diseases may be related to each other. We planned this study to show the relationship between OSAS and fibromyalgia (FM).
Detailed Description:
Our research will be carried out on patients diagnosed with OSAS after being evaluated in the sleep laboratory of the Research Hospital Department of Chest Diseases. Fibromyalgia screening will be performed on participants who are diagnosed with OSAS and accepted to participate in the study. Patients with FM according to the 2010 American College of Rheumatology diagnostic criteria will be divided into two groups as FM patients (case group) and patients who do not meet these criteria (control group). Sleep laboratory results and demographic data of all patients will be recorded. In addition, anxiety, depression and fatigue levels will be evaluated with scales. Fibromyalgia impact questionnaire will be applied to fibromyalgia patients. Our study is a cross-sectional prospective case-control study. It is not a treatment research, an interventional application will not be made to the patients.
Our hypothesis is that OSAS patients with FMS may have more fatigue, anxiety, depression, lower algometer values, and more severe OSAS findings in polysomnographic data.
