This large screening study across China aims to identify how common obstructive sleep apnea is in different groups of people: healthy community residents, people with conditions like high blood pressure or lung disease, and working professionals like teachers and healthcare workers. Researchers will ask participants to complete screening questionnaires, and then randomly select some people to undergo sleep monitoring tests (like overnight sleep studies) to confirm whether they have sleep apnea.
Sleep apnea is a serious condition where people stop breathing repeatedly during sleep, but many people don't know they have it. This screening study will help doctors understand how widespread the problem is across different populations in China, which could lead to better early detection and treatment for people at highest risk.

If you qualify, you'll first be asked to complete a screening questionnaire either by phone or in person with an interviewer. Based on your answers, you may be randomly selected for additional sleep monitoring—this could be an overnight sleep study at home or in a clinic where sensors track your breathing and sleep patterns. The study is ongoing and already enrolling participants across multiple hospitals and communities in China.
