Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To assess the diagnostic value of DiagnOSAS as diagnostic marker for OSAS in the first line in terms of positive predictive value and sensitivity. Polygraphy is hereby considered the gold standard.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
i) Negative predictive value and specificity of pulse-oximetry as diagnostic marker for OSAS in the first line. ii) Negative predicitive value, positive predictive value, sensitivity, and specificity of the Philips questionnaire as diagnostic marker for OSAS. iii) Usability of DiagnOSAS for patients. iv) Realized cost savings when using DiagnOSAS with respect to the gold standard.	—
