The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSA) is up to 10%, and it can present systemic complications, such as cardiovascular ones. In the adult population, ischemic heart disease remains one of the leading causes of mortality. There are reports in the world medical literature in which there is a high correlation of OSA in patients who have presented acute coronary syndrome (ACS), these studies have been done in populations with physical and sociodemographic characteristics different from those of our population. There is a high correlation (prevalence 100%) between OSA and ACS, where the most prevalent is the degree of severe intensity. The risk factors that demonstrate a high prevalence in the population studied, atherosclerosis, dyslipidemia and systemic arterial hypertension, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, type 2 diabetes mellitus and alcoholism.
