Society of Anesthesia and Sleep Medicine: Safety of Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea in the Perioperative Period
Mandeep Singh, MBBS, MD, MSc, FRCPC; Jennifer E. Dominguez, MD, MHS; Melanie Lyons, PhD, ACNP; Satya Krishna Ramachandran, MD, MBA; Bhargavi Gali, MD, MHA Introduction
The Society of Anesthesia and Sleep Medicine (SASM) was founded in 2010 as a collaboration between anesthesia professionals and sleep specialists focused on the perioperative safety of patients with sleep disorders. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the sleep disorders that has become recognized as a risk factor for perioperative complications.1,2 SASM has been involved in research and education in the management of patients with OSA and at high risk of undiagnosed OSA in the perioperative period, including development of guidelines to address provision of safe care.3-5 Other sleep disturbances can impact provision of optimal care in the perioperative period, and SASM continues to work to identify and address knowledge gaps of providers to help optimize patient outcomes.3-7
SASM continues to work to identify ongoing needs for education and further research, in addition to utilizing the expertise of sleep specialists and anesthesia professionals to provide guidance in preventing and detecting adverse events in the perioperative period (Figure 1). |
