Recent studies show that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a possible contributor to abnormal cognitive decline in older adults. These new observations create the need to identify older adults with OSA who are at risk of the developing dementia if not treated. This study's goal was to verify whether self-reported cognitive complaints could become a useful tool to screen for objective cognitive deficits in late middle-aged and older adults with OSA.
