Approach to and Evaluation of Sleep Disorders

Abstract: Sleep-related symptoms are common in adult and pediatric patients. A comprehensive sleep history, physical examination with detailed evaluation of the head and neck, and judicious use of sleep-specific questionnaires guide the decision to pursue diagnostic testing. Understanding of the benefits and limitations of various diagnostic modalities is important as the spectrum of testing options increases.

In addition, it is difficult to determine the actual prevalence and severity of OSA on the basis of self-reported EDS, since the latter may be related to a number of different conditions such as metabolic or toxic diseases, or the use of certain drugs [13] .
