Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving elderly patients (\u2265 60 years of age) with a pacemaker. The dependent variable was quality of life, as evaluated with the Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Sociodemographic and clinical parameters, including anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score), as well as the presence of OSA (defined as an apnea-hypopnea index \u2265 15 events\/h), were analyzed as independent variables. Patients with cognitive\/neurological deficits or decompensated heart failure were excluded.  Results: We evaluated 72 patients, 17 (23.6%) of whom presented OSA. Of those 17 patients, 9 (52.9%) were male. The mean age was 72.3 \u00b1 9.3 years. A diagnosis of OSA was not associated with gender (p = 0.132), age (p = 0.294), or body mass index (p = 0.790). There were no differences between the patients with OSA and those without, in terms of the SF-36 domain scores. Fourteen patients (19.4%) presented moderate or severe anxiety. Of those 14 patients, only 3 (21.4%) had OSA (p = 0.89 vs. no OSA). Twelve patients (16.6%) had moderate or severe depression. Of those 12 patients, only 2 (16.6%) had OSA (p = 0.73 vs. no OSA).  Conclusions: In elderly patients with a pacemaker, OSA was not found to be associated with quality of life or with symptoms of anxiety or depression.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1806-3713\/e20170333","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,9]],"date-time":"2019-02-09T18:26:42Z","timestamp":1549736802000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Obstructive sleep apnea and quality of life in elderly patients with a pacemaker"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"45","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4618-2730","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tatiana Albuquerque Gon\u00e7alves de","family":"Lima","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculdade Nova Roma,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0584-2966","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Evandro Cabral de","family":"Brito","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de Pernambuco,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6688-0600","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robson","family":"Martins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de Pernambuco,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1088-2126","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandro Gon\u00e7alves de","family":"Lima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal de Pernambuco,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9078-3296","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rodrigo Pinto","family":"Pedrosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de Pernambuco,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019]]},"reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"441","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sleep.2009.10.005","article-title":"Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in the Sao Paulo Epidemiologic Sleep Study","volume":"11","author":"Tufik S","year":"2010","journal-title":"Sleep Med"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref2","first-page":"531","article-title":"The impact of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome severity on physical performance and mental health The use of SF-36 questionnaire in sleep apnea","volume":"17","author":"Karkoulias K","year":"2013","journal-title":"Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci"},{"key":"ref3","first-page":"188","article-title":"Consequences of obstructive sleep apnoea","volume":"131","author":"Gurubhagavatula I","year":"2010","journal-title":"Indian J Med Res"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"289","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-2113.120603","article-title":"Quality of life impairment in patients of obstructive sleep apnea and its relation with the severity of disease","volume":"30","author":"Dutt N","year":"2013","journal-title":"Lung India"},{"issue":"13","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"835","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199603283341306","article-title":"Assessment of quality-of-life outcomes","volume":"334","author":"Testa MA","year":"1996","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"issue":"6","key":"ref6","first-page":"2919","article-title":"The impact of chronic disease on the quality of life of the elderly in S\u00e3o Paulo (SP, Brazil) [Article in Portuguese] Cien Saude","volume":"16","author":"Campolina AG","year":"2011","journal-title":"Colet"},{"issue":"5","key":"ref7","first-page":"538","article-title":"The concept of health [Article in Portuguese] Rev Saude","volume":"31","author":"Segre M","year":"1997","journal-title":"Publica"},{"key":"ref8","series-title":"Epidemiologia & Sa\u00fade - Fundamentos, M\u00e9todos e Aplica\u00e7\u00f5es","first-page":"427","volume-title":"Epidemiologia do Envelhecimento","author":"Veras R","year":"2012"},{"issue":"1","key":"ref9","first-page":"55","article-title":"Epidemiologia do envelhecimento dinamiza\u00e7\u00e3o, problemas e consequ\u00eancias","volume":"15","author":"Furtado LFV","year":"2012","journal-title":"Kair\u00f3s Gerontol"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref10","first-page":"302","article-title":"Self-assessment of health by older Brazilians systematic review of the literature [Article in Portuguese].
