Description
Summary:Objective: This study aimed to compare the effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and surgical treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea syndrome (OSAS) on nocturia. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight patients who received treatment for OSAS and had nocturia between January 2019 and December 2019 were included in the study. Questionnaires of the International Prostate Symptom score, Overactive Bladder Symptoms score, International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Male Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms were administered to all patients. The number of nocturia was evaluated by the mean number of nocturia episodes in the bladder diary. Results: Thirty-two (66.6%) patients received CPAP therapy, and 16 (33.3%) patients underwent surgical treatment for OSAS. The mean number of nocturia episodes of all patients before and after treatment was 2.3[+ or -]1.4 and 1.7[+ or -]2.2, respectively, and the difference was significant (p=0.032). However, surgical treatment and CPAP therapy were not superior to each other in terms of improving nocturia (p=0.901). Conclusion: Regardless of treatment modalities, i.e., CPAP therapy or surgical treatment, treating OSAS improves nocturia.
