Brief summary
In this study the investigators will analyze the influence of smoking, benzodizepine use, and obesity among patients with severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (sOSA).
Detailed description
This study is a retrospective study. Patients enrolled: all patients with a PSG (polysomnography) between 1st January 2014 and 30th June 2015. First analysis: influence of smoking, benzodiazepine use, and obesity on the AHI (Apnea Hypopnea Index: the number of apnea and hypopnea per hour of sleep). Second analysis: only among patients with sOSA: influence of smoking, benzodiazepine use, and obesity on sleep fragmentation and night oximetry.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Apnea Hypopnea Index | 1 day | Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) is defined as the number of apnea and hypopnea per hour of sleep. It is the major determinant of the severity of OSA. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep fragmentation defined by the percentage of time spent in each of the four stades of sleep (Stade 1, Stade 2, Slow wave sleep and Rapid Eye Movements) | 1 day | Are smoking and/or obesity a risk factor for sleep fragmentation? |
| Time spent under 90% of SpO2 during the night | 1 day | Are smoking and/or obesity a risk factor for oxygen desaturation (\< 90% SpO2) during the night? |
