A high prevalence of vertigo and dizziness in the OSA population was detected. Psychometric results showed that vertigo and dizziness in OSA patients led to changes in activities of daily living, increased frequency of somatic symptoms, and reduced balance confidence. In the diagnosis and treatment of OSA patients, the occurrence of vertigo and dizziness is worth clinicians' attention.
