Is daytime sleepiness a sufficient predictor of sleep-disordered breathing during pre-anesthesia consultation?
In non-obese patients, daytime sleepiness is a rare event and is not associated with SDB. Thus, daytime sleepiness is not eligible for the preoperative SDB screening.
Mortality was higher and duration of survival shorter in septic neonates with lower plasma ACP. The latter was an independent predictor of the hazard of dying.
