Not all patients with OSA have EDS EDS in OSA has prominent clinical and socioeconomic consequences Although it is not demonstrated, it appears plausible that EDS is the cause of the increased risk of traffic accidents among patients with OSA The pathogenesis of EDS in OSA is likely multifactorial: intermittent hypoxemia, sleep instability and fragmentation, metabolic and autonomic dysregulation,comorbidities, depression, inflammation, and genetic vulnerability could be involved.
