Solid evidence shows that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with cardiovascular risk. Airway obstruction during sleep predispose to cardiopulmonary disorders such as systemic hypertension, coronary artery disease and stroke, representing a negative impact on public health. Also, OSA has been associated with the development of endothelial dysfunction, arrhythmias, heart failure and pulmonary hypertension (PH). These associations have promoted the development of evidence that allows to understand the independent impact of this syndrome. This review of the literature published in MEDLINE, which is the most important database of the National Library of Medicine, aims to show the role that OSA has as cardiovascular risk and focus on its association with the development of pulmonary hypertension for being a predisposing factor for ventricular dysfunction.
