Abstract:

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep-related breathing disorder, and its chronic nature and high correlation with many chronic diseases make its diagnosis and long-term management a great challenge. The traditional treatment model has obvious shortcomings in terms of efficiency, resource allocation, and patient compliance. In primary care, general practice emphasizes a person-centered, comprehensive management model, playing a crucial role in the early screening, diagnosis, and long-term follow-up of OSA. In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and its application in OSA screening, diagnosis, personalized treatment plan development and long-term follow-up have significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of OSA diagnosis and treatment, especially through wearable devices, telemedicine and multimodal data analysis to realize the intelligent transformation of OSA management, which provides new solutions to OSA diagnosis and treatment. This review systematically described the epidemiological characteristics of OSA, the attributes of chronic diseases, and the limitations of the existing diagnosis and treatment modes, and explored the practical applications and potentials of the deep integration of general practice and AI technology in OSA management, as well as its current challenges and future prospects. It was emphasized that the future management of OSA needed to promote multidisciplinary collaboration and strengthen the deep integration of general practice and AI technology, to achieve precise and personalized high-quality management of OSA and related chronic diseases.

摘要:

阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)是一种常见的睡眠呼吸障碍性疾病,其慢性病特性及其与多种慢性疾病的高度关联性使得其诊疗和长期管理面临巨大挑战。传统的诊疗模式在效率、资源分配和患者依从性方面存在明显不足。在基层医疗中,全科医疗强调以人为中心的综合管理模式,在OSA的早期筛查、诊断和长期随访中发挥重要作用。近年来,人工智能(AI)技术快速发展,其在OSA筛查、诊断、个性化治疗方案制定和长期随访中的应用显著提升了OSA的诊疗效率和精准性,特别是通过可穿戴设备、远程医疗和多模态数据分析实现了OSA管理的智能化转型,为OSA诊疗提供了全新的方案。本文系统阐述了OSA的流行病学特征、慢病属性及现有诊疗模式的局限性,探讨全科医学与AI技术深度融合在OSA管理中的实际应用和潜力及其当前面临的挑战与未来展望。强调未来OSA的管理需推动多学科协作,加强全科医学与AI技术的深度融合,以实现OSA及相关慢性疾病的精准化和个性化的高质量管理。
