dc.description.abstractObesity hypoventilation syndrome is characterized by obesity, hypoventilation with hypercapnia, somnolence and sleep related breathing disorders in the absence of significant lung, nerological, metabolic or respiratory muscle diseases. The prevalence of this disease increases rapidly both in worldwide and in our country as a result of the increasing trend in obesity. It is an important cause of both mortality and morbidity by causing pulmonary hypertension and low health related life quality. Increasing awareness of this disease in physicians will lead to early diagnosis and suitable treatment.
