One of the few national epidemiological studies was published and showed a prevalence of 32.8% of OSA in the population of Sao Paulo. The gold standard for diagnosis of OSA is polysomnography (PSG). Despite this, tests often show the same individual variability and inter night to night. Because it is costly and time consuming, other diagnostic tools such as the Watch PAT 200 (WP) were developed. This is an ambulatory device that consists of a actgraphy, sensors capturing peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) and body position, pulse oximetry, and microphone to capture snoring.Objectives:Evaluate the difference between two diagnostic methods for OSAS: PSG and WP.Methods:A study in the sleep laboratory of the Complexo Hospitalar Edmundo Vasconcelos from June to August 2012, including 20 volunteers who had no exclusion criteria and performed using... |
