Abstract: Nocturnal oximetry is an alternative modality for evaluating obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) severity when polysomnography is not available. The Oxygen Desaturation (≥3%) Index (ODI3) and McGill Oximetry Score (MOS) are used as predictors of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/1393003.congress-2017.pa1308
Abstract: Background: Standard pediatric in-lab polysomnography (PSG) is relatively unavailable and particularly intrusive for children. In low resource settings, nocturnal oximetry has been proposed as a feasible and potentially reliable screening tool for childhood obstructive sleep… read more here.
