The incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is significantly higher in patients who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). OSA is correlated with a higher incidence of postoperative complications in patients undergoing CABG. However, whether OSA is associated with a decrease in renal function and a higher incidence of dialysis after CABG remains unclear.
