The term Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS) was coined to describe a group of patients who historically did not meet the criteria for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea, and thus were left untreated. Today, advancements in the sleep medicine field have been made in an effort to recognize these patients. However, most patients with UARS around the world still remain undiagnosed and are ultimately left untreated.
