Introduction: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a chronic respiratory disorder and is recurrent comorbidity in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with high prevalence and morbidity. Evidence suggests that the majority of patients with T2D also have OSA. The relationship between OSA and T2D may be bidirectional in nature and untreated OSA in these patients results in poor glycemic control and complications. Aims: To assess the prevalence and severity of OSA in people with T2D and the impact of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on glycemic control, and other complications. Materials and Methods: People with T2D suspected of OSA and who underwent polysomnography (PSG) from the department of medicine, Chirayu medical college and hospital, Bhopal were recruited for this study, from September 2021 to April 2022.
