Abstract
We read with interest Helena Marti-Soler and colleagues' Article1 in the Lancet Respiratory Medicine on their proposed clinical algorithm (NoSAS), which showed good sensitivity for detecting individuals at risk of sleep-disordered breathing with greater accuracy than other validated questionnaires. This algorithm could be potentially useful for screening purposes in large cohorts for whom polysomnography is too expensive and time consuming.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
