The SFAR (French society of anesthesiology and ICU) proposed a method to detect OSA (Obstructive Sleep Apnea) patients via videoconference. The aim of this study is to compare the result of this method with the results of polysomnography (PSG) which remains the gold standard in the detection of OSA patients.
The SFAR (French society of anesthesiology and ICU) proposed a method to detect OSA (Obstructive Sleep Apnea) patients via videoconference. The aim of this study is to compare the result of this method with the results of polysomnography (PSG) which remains the gold standard in the detection of OSA patients. Other methods, such as a predictive score, also exist. The accuracy of the French method compared to PSG and the predictive scores is to be determined.

We will validate the accuracy of the method proposed by the SFAR to detect OSA patients via videoconference (in comparison with the results of the PSG).
Validation of the method proposed by the SFAR by comparison with results of polysomnography.
Validation (or not) of the method proposed by the SFAR to detect OSA patient va videoconference. The SFAR proposed a method to detect OSA patients throughout a videoconference. This method consists in requesting the patient to go around his neck with his two hands. However, this method has not been validated. The outcome of the study is to validate or invalidate the method proposed by the SFAR in comparison with the results of polysomnography (which remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of OSA patients).
