Popis: Abstract Background Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Home sleep apnoea testing with peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) is a recommended diagnostic alternative for patients with an increased risk for OSA. In a large clinical cohort, we investigated concordance and predictors for discordance in diagnosing OSA using PAT and PSG, and three-year cardiovascular risk in patients with discordant OSA diagnosis. Methods Retrospective monocentric cohort study. Patients with a PAT AHI ≥ 5/h followed by an in-hospital PSG within three months were included. All patients with a PAT AHI ≥ 5/h but a PSG AHI
