Cross-sectional Study on a Given Day Within the Paris Saint-Joseph Hospital Group

Evaluation of the Population Likely to Benefit From Sleep Exploration: Cross-sectional Study on a Given Day Within the Paris Saint-Joseph Hospital Group

Sleep apnea syndrome has an estimated incidence of 2 to 4% in the adult population and more so in men and with aging. It is an independent risk factor for mortality. Cardiovascular pathologies, diabetes, and stroke are known comorbidities with a high rate of association. There is no recommendation to screen these patients although the interest is assumed and sleep apnea syndrome is largely underdiagnosed. Interrogation and clinical examination guide but they are neither sensitive nor specific. The use of scores improves screening. In the general population, the Berlin score has a high false negative rate. The STOP-BANG score is sensitive but with a poor positive predictive value. Combined, these scores can be used to detect Sleep Apnea Syndrome. The interest of a management was especially shown for the very symptomatic syndromes because it is a pledge of observance of the treatment, itself necessary for the effectiveness in the prevention of the cardiovascular complications.
