Summary

Sleep apnea syndrome is common and increases with age. In the elderly, symptoms might be different than in the youngest people, and its consequences might be severe and atypical (falls, functional and cognitive decline).

Today, there is no specific tool to detect sleep apnea in the elderly. The goal of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of oximetry for detection of respiratory disturbances in sleep apnea in the hospitalized elderly.
