Comparison of NoSAS score with STOP-Bang and Berlin scores in predicting difficult airway.

BMC Anesthesiol

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Suleyman Demirel University, Operating Room, Floor:1, Cunur, Isparta, 32260, Turkey.

Background: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scoring systems, which are utilized to predict obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), in forecasting difficult airway management. Additionally, the study sought to determine which of these scoring systems is the most practical and effective for this purpose.

Methods: Following the ethics committee approval, preoperative NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scores were calculated for 420 patients aged 18 years and older who were scheduled for tracheal intubation.

Alpha-1-Antitrypsin (A1AT) deficiency is a common hereditary disorder associated with increased risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Many individuals with severe A1AT deficiency go undiagnosed, or are diagnosed late, and fail to benefit from disease-specific counseling and modifying care. Since the 2012 Canadian Thoracic Society (CTS) A1AT deficiency clinical practice guideline, new approaches to optimal diagnosis using modern genetic testing and studies of A1AT augmentation therapy have been published.

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive episodes of complete or partial upper airway collapse during sleep. Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sleep-related movement disorder characterized by an uncomfortable urge to move the legs, especially during inactivity and evenings. Both OSA and RLS are common with significant overlap: RLS is present in up to 36% of those with OSA.

Objective/background: Comorbid insomnia with obstructive sleep apnea (COMISA) is associated with worse daytime function and more medical/psychiatric comorbidities vs either condition alone. COMISA may negatively impact sleep duration and reduce rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, thereby impairing cognition. These post-hoc analyses evaluated the effect of lemborexant (LEM), a dual-orexin-receptor antagonist approved for adults with insomnia, on sleep architecture in participants with COMISA.
