Abstract:Many people living with HIV (PLWH) have undiagnosed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which may contribute to commonly reported fatigue and the high cardiovascular disease burden in this population. Our objective was to assess the utility of traditional OSA screening tools (STOP-BANG, Berlin Questionnaire (BQ), and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)) for detecting OSA in PLWH. |
