pubmed:abstractText |
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder in modern society and closely associated with obesity. Because OSA increases the likelihood of complications in the perioperative period, preoperative recognition is very important for bariatric patients. Polysomnography (PSG) remains the gold standard for diagnosis, but it is a time-consuming and expensive examination. Our study is aimed at identifying practical clinical predictors of OSA for bariatric patients.
