Abstract

1) Introduction: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder causing hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disorders. Doppler technology, a non-invasive imaging method, is used to detect vascular changes in OSA patients. A bibliometric review of literature on Doppler use in OSA cases can help identify trends and areas for further study. This analysis can reveal leading journals, influential authors, and the relationship between diagnostic technology and clinical knowledge. It can also help in setting research priorities and developing innovative solutions for OSA diagnosis and management.; 2) Materials and methods: This research aims to explore the evolution of scientific disciplines by finding and identifying trends, patterns and correlations in scientific texts related to certain topics. The focus of this study was doppler and osa or osbstructive sleep apneu using both quantitative and qualitative analysis. 3) Results and discussion:. Bibliometric analysis reveals increasing publications, global collaboration, significant diagnostic standards are not yet evenly distributed; Doppler technology effectively detects hemodynamic dynamics in OSA. and 4) Conclusions: The review emphasizes the importance of Doppler technology in improving OSA diagnostics and treatments. It highlights the need for collaboration between academic, clinical, and technological domains to improve care standards. The study highlights the transformative potential of hemodynamic understanding and Doppler technology in sleep medicine. This research was conducted in April 2025
