Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the significance of the sleep apnea quality of life index (SAQLI) for uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and quality of life in patients with obstruction sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS). Methods: Thirty patients with OSAHS were diagnosed by PSG and treated by UPPP. SAQLI was surveyed before and after surgery. Results: Before operation, the score of SAQLI was greatly reduced and had significant statistically correlation with the apnea hypopnea index(AHI) (r=-0.54) and lowest saturation (LSaO2) (r=0.56). After operation, the total score of SAQLI including 4 domains increased significantly (P<0.001). Quality of life was improved in 86.7% cases in general. By SAQLI, we could discriminate among those with different qualities of life. Conclusion: The amelioration of quality of life in OSAHS patients is significant in the short term after UPPP. SAQLI can be a valuable measurement in clinical diagnosis and follow-up treatment.
