Sumario:Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) results from upper airway collapse during sleep. It represents an increasingly recognized pathology associated with many diseases. Herein, we describe a database for patients with OSAS. This has different goals: to facilitate good uniformity in clinical assessment, to allow the use of the application even by non-ENT specialists, to evaluate the results of medical and/or surgical treatments and to enable a statistical meta-analysis derived from the data collected in many OSAS medical centres.
