This study was undertaken to determine patients admitted ICU if an independent predictor mortality. Methods retrospective using Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation III database cross-referenced comprehensive clinical identify with without medical, surgical, mixed ICUs at large academic medical center. Results Between January 2003 December 2005, 15 077 were ICUs; these, 1183 (7.8%) had physician-documented diagnosis OSA. Eight hundred thirty-five (71%) polysomnographic testing our institution documented apnea-hypopnea index more than 5 per hour. Patients younger (59.1 ± 14.0 vs 62.3 18.0), male (58.9% 53.7%), lower scores (45.3 24.1 54.9 27.7). Predicted mortality (10.3% 16.4% vs16.3 21.7), median length stay (1.13 1.50 days), (2.4% 6.2%), hospital (3.9% 11.4%) all reduced OSA, P values Conclusions ICU. associated reduction both
