Abstract:

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a correlation between questions asked on the OSA screening form and diagnosis of OSA. Data was stratified by age, race, gender and medical diagnoses.



Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on all patients who presented to Children’s Medical Center Dallas Dental clinic with OSA score of 6 or greater and who were referred to ENT for assessment prior to moderate sedation or GA. Patient’s charts were reviewed to assess what the initial OSA score was at the time of referral and associated patients’ BMI. Furthermore, ENT diagnoses and recommended treatment were also assessed in this study.





Results: Final data pending.



Conclusions: Conclusion pending final data.
