A screening instrument for sleep apnea predicts airway maneuvers in patients undergoing advanced endoscopic procedures
Background & Aims Among patients undergoing advanced endoscopy, unrecognized obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) could predict sedation-related complications (SRCs) and the need for airway maneuvers (AMs). By using an OSA screening tool, we sought to define the prevalence of patients at high risk for...
