ABSTRACT
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent respiratory sleep disorder that, when left undiagnosed or untreated, can lead to adverse outcomes. There continue to be gaps and variations in screening adults who are high risk for OSA in the primary care setting, leading to many adults in the United States going undiagnosed. As a part of the ongoing AASM quality measure maintenance initiative, the AASM Quality Measures Task Force reviewed the original screening for adult obstructive sleep apnea by primary care physicians quality measure. The measure was updated to further address the adult populations who are at high risk for OSA to ensure that the measure is consistent with the most current medical literature, increasing the likelihood that patients at high risk for OSA are properly screened for the sleep disorder.
