Abstract
Connected health is a growing field and can be viewed from different perspectives, particularly in sleep apnea syndrome. The purpose of this review is to show how all these aspects of connected health are already used in the management of sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) and its comorbidities. First, it can give patients a better understanding and a better assessment of their health. It also facilitates their healthcare by allowing them a greater role in their care pathway. For healthcare providers, connected health tools make it possible to set up new procedures for diagnosing and monitoring ambulatory patients, and for the making of joint decisions by health professionals and patients. Finally, for researchers, e-health generates massive amounts of data, thus facilitating the acquisition of knowledge in real life situations and the development of new methodologies for clinical studies that are faster, less expensive and just as reliable. All these considerations are already applicable in the field of sleep apnea, both for proposed treatments and for comorbidities management and for the patient's involvement in his/her care pathway.
