Title: Polysomnography versus polygraphy: The role of screening questionnaires in determining the risk and severity of obstructive sleep apnea
Abstract: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious condition that can have a variety of detrimental clinical effects. Polysomnography is the gold standard for the diagnosis of this sleep-related breathing disorder (SRBD) (PSG). However, because of this procedure’s complexity, high staff expertise requirement, and relatively low availability, some less complex replacements have been created; the most popular of these is polygraphy (PG). There are numerous questionnaires that can be used to evaluate the likelihood and severity of OSA prior to testing. The STOP-BANG questionnaire (SBQ), the NoSAS questionnaire, and the Berlin questionnaire are the three most frequently used ones (BQ). When applied to various populations, they have varying sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV). The purpose of this study is to offer a succinct, clinically relevant review of the most popular questionnaires, paying particular attention to their advantages and disadvantages. We also discuss which test would be better for most likely OSA diagnosis confirmation: PSG or PG.
