Risk prediction for Obstructive Sleep Apnea prognostic in Obese patients referred for bariatric surgery

Abstract: Objectives: (i) To assess the anthropometric measurements, along with the clinical characteristics and quality of life profiles of the studied patients; (ii) To determine the occurrence and severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), using polysomnography; and (iii) To identify the best anthropometric and clinical indicators to predict OSA in obese patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery. Methods: a prospective observational study conducted in a private clinic, using consecutive sampling of patients e… Show more

Although CPAP is the “golden method” for OSA treatment, there are other methods in OSA therapy.…”
