Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of apnea and hypopnea during sleep. The symptoms include excessive daytime sleepiness, non-refreshing sleep, daytime fatigue, and decreased concentration, which may cause marked impairment in social or occupational functioning. In addition, the patients with OSA were shown to have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, depression, and impaired cognitive function. Therefore, an early diagnosis and treatment of OSA are important. The gold standard for the diagnosis of OSA is overnight polysomnography. However, because polysomnography is expensive and has limited availability with complex technical support, it is essential to know the predictive risk factors for OSA. Based on these predictive risk factors, it is possible to determine which patients should have priority for undergoing polysomnography.
