Multivariable analysis of factors associated with the risk of cardiopulmonary events by using the alternative scoring model of STOP-Bang questionnaire in the subgroup without a history of cerebrovascular disease (n = 277).
| aOR (95% CI) | |
|---|---|
| STOP-Bang, alternative scoring modela | |
| Low risk | 1 |
| Intermediate risk | 1.98 (0.996–3.94) |
| High risk | 2.05 (1.02–4.09) |
| COPD | |
| No | 1 |
| Yes | 2.44 (1.24–4.79) |
| Chronic kidney disease | |
| No | 1 |
| Yes | 6.26 (1.49–26.19) |
| Baseline heart rate,/10 beats/min | 1.19 (0.96–1.47) |
| Baseline SpO2,/% | 0.65 (0.54–0.78) |
| Procedure time,/2 min | 1.16 (1.02–1.31) |
aOR adjusted odds ratio, CI confidence interval, COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, SpO2 pulse oximeter oxygen saturation.
aThe alternative scoring model of the STOP-Bang questionnaire classifies participants into three groups based on the STOP-Bang score: low (0–2), intermediate (3–4), and high risk (5–8). Those with STOP-Bang scores of 3 or 4 can be further classified as having a high risk for moderate to severe OSA if they have both a STOP (snoring, tiredness, observed apnea, high blood pressure) score of ≥ 2 and one of the following conditions: (1) BMI > 35 kg/m2; (2) neck circumference > 40 cm; or (3) are of the male gender.
