Weight Management in Obesity-Associated Sleep-Disordered Breathing: Mechanisms, Clinical Management, and Emerging Therapies
Sleep-disordered breathing linked to obesity responds best to weight management tailored to each person's unique sleep and metabolic pattern.
OBJECTIVE: To review the mechanistic links between obesity and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and summarize practical approaches to weight-directed, sleep-directed, and phenotype-informed management. CONCLUSION: Obesity associated sleep-disordered breathing is best managed as a heterogeneous cardiometabolic and sleep breathing condition.
