Sleep disorders, affecting an estimated 30% of patients, are common and treatable but often undiagnosed, leading to worsened outcomes in conditions like cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases. Advances in diagnostics and treatments are improving accessibility, emphasizing the need for hospital physicians to recognize and manage these disorders.
