Sleep Apnea Risk Screening

This screening uses the STOP-Bang questionnaire. It is a screening tool only and does not diagnose obstructive sleep apnea.

1. Snoring

Do you snore loudly (loud enough to be heard through closed doors or your bed-partner elbows you for snoring at night)?

2. Tired

Do you often feel tired, fatigued, or sleepy during the daytime (such as falling asleep during driving or talking to someone)?

3. Observed

Has anyone observed you stop breathing or choking/gasping during your sleep?

4. Pressure

Do you have or are you being treated for high blood pressure?

5. BMI

Is your body mass index more than 35 kg/m²?

Need help calculating BMI?

6. Age

Are you older than 50 years old?

7. Neck Circumference

Is your neck circumference greater than 40 cm / 15.75 inches?

How do I measure my neck?

Wrap a tape measure around the base of your neck, keeping it level and snug but not tight.

8. Gender

Are you male?
