Abstract
The STOP-Bang questionnaire can be used as a screening tool in the general population in view of its moderate sensitivity and high negative predictive value for subjects with moderate-to-severe and severe OSA. The cutoff of BMI >35 can be used in Asians, as lower BMI cutoffs did not improve questionnaire performance.
