Résumé
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is prevalent in patients with stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA). OSA is also a risk factor for recurrent stroke and TIA. Screening for and addressing OSA in acute stroke settings is difficult because of variety of factors not the least of which is the added burden on the healthcare team. We describe the preliminary results of a pilot program instituted at our medical center and the positive impact it has on OSA screening in the acute stroke unit.
