Summary

Nowadays, anesthetists may encounter many patients who are not diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) to undergo elective surgery. Recognition of these patients by anesthesiologists and taking necessary precautions will significantly reduce perioperative complications and mortality. STOP-BANG is a questionnaire used to predict high risk of OSAS. The aim of our study is to evaluate the clinical use of the oxygen reserve index as an early warning of possible desaturation in patients with low and high risk of OSAS according to the Stop Bang score.
