Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the diagnosis and treatment of diseases has been greatly affected. Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common chronic disease, whose diagnosis and treatment methods have changed dramatically during the epidemic period-from traditional outpatient diagnosis and treatment to online remote diagnosis and treatment based on Internet. The diagnostical capability of major sleep centers has increased instead of decreasing.

Under the normalization of epidemic situation, telemedicine not only creates new opportunities, but also faces unprecedented challenges.
