Popis: Objectives: To evaluate symptoms related to Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its relation with personal characteristics and medication use. Methods: The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), Berlin questionnaire (BQ) and Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) were used, including variables such as gender, body mass index, systemic arterial hypertension, cardiopathy and amount of medicines used, from January to October/2017, and performed data analysis. Results: A total of 231 patients participated, 66.23% presented poor sleep quality; 24.68% high risk of OSAHS and 31.7% excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). The BQ showed a higher chance of a high risk for OSAHS in pre-obese and obese I-degree. The ESS showed an increase in EDS with the reduction of 1 medication for cardiopathy. The PSQI showed a higher chance of poor sleep quality in females than not male. Discussion: Other than this study, the literature shows that EDS can result from the use of drugs for heart disease and hypertension. The literature shows that overweight and obesity increase the chance of systemic arterial hypertension, moreover, this research showed that weight also had a greater influence on the high risk of OSAHS. This shows that overweight and obesity are risk factors for systemic arterial hypertension, OSAHS and CVD. This study evidenced, as well as the literature, poorer sleep quality in females.
