Presence and manifestation of sleep apnea syndrome in patients with cerebral vessels pathology have been studied. Based on inquiries of more than 4000 patients, a special screening indentification has been developed, which accuracy made up 85%. In addition an extensive polysomnographic investigation with registration of EEG, EMG, EOG, oxygen saturation, oronasal flow, breathing movements of thoracic and abdominal walls was performed. A large presentation of apnea syndrome in patients with vascular pathology is revealed, as well as differences in pattern of sleep breathing disorders.
