Abstract

Background and Objective: Periodic limb movements of sleep (PLMS) and Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are two common sleep disorders that frequently co-occur in one subject. In this study, we evaluated the polysomnographic (PSG) features of patients with OSA with and without PLMS. Materials and Methods: Patients with OSA diagnosed by PSG who referred to our sleep clinic over 2 years were studied for PLMS during a standard diagnostic sleep study. PSG features including apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and Sleep quality were evaluated and compared between patients with OSA with and without PLMS. Results: We evaluated 122 patients with OSA, of whom 17 had comorbid PLMS. Mean Sleep quality was significantly lower in patients with PLMS compared to those without PLMS (P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference in terms of mean age, gender, arousal index (AI), ODI, and apnea/hypopnea between the two groups. Conclusion: Patients with OSA with PLMS comorbidity have remarkably lower Sleep quality and this finding is inde-pendent of the severity of arousals or respiratory events. Proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of PLMS comor-bidity in patients with OSA might improve treatment response.
