Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) together with insomnia are the most common sleep disorders [1]. OSA is secondary to complete or partial airway obstruction caused by recurrent pharyngeal collapse during sleep [2], producing loud snoring or choking and frequent awakenings. This chronic sleep disturbance results in daytime sleepiness and fatigue that impedes patient’s ability to function, thereby negatively affecting his or her quality of life [3, 4]. In 2015, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) task force released quality measures for the care of adult patients with OSA. The first quality measure outcome is to improve detection and categorisation of OSA symptoms and severity [4].
