Brief summary

Derivation and Validation of a combination of BOSTON score and DES-OSA score to exclude OSA or to confirm OSA in patients.

Detailed description

The aim of this study is to derive and to validate a combination of BOSTON score and DES-OSA score. Firstly, the investigators will use a retrospective cohort of 400 patients to determine this combination. It will allow classifying patients in 3 groups: 1) patients for whom OSA can be excluded with certitude, 2) patients for whom OSA can be diagnosed with certitude, and 3) an intermediate group. Secondly, the 100 patients included in this study will serve to validate the cutoff of the abovementioned combination into a new population.

Interventions

OTHERCutoff Validation
