Description
Summary:Determine predictors of early diagnosis and prevalence of OHS among patient with sleep disordered breathing (SDB) at Mansoura SDB unit. Determine predictors of early diagnosis and prevalence of OHS among patient with sleep disordered breathing (SDB) diagnosed at Mansoura SDB unit. The study population consists of 212 patients referred to Mansoura University SDB unit for investigation of possible SDB. All patients were subjected to the following: Clinical evaluation, Pulse oximeter, Erect awake ABG, Spirometry and Polysomnography. It was found that; The overall prevalence of OHS in studied cases was 13.2% (28 out of 212) and the prevalence of SDB in all studied cases was 83.02% (176 out of 212), 15.91% (28 out of 176) with OHS. The following predictors can be used for early diagnosis of OHS; a cutoff point of 93% of erect awake SpO2 with sensitivity of 97.1%, Specificity of 100%, p
