Frequently Asked Questions
What is STOP-BANG used for?
STOP-BANG is a simple 8-question screening tool used to estimate the risk of obstructive sleep apnea, commonly used before surgery to flag patients who may need further evaluation.
What STOP-BANG score suggests high risk?
A score of 5 or higher is generally considered high risk for obstructive sleep apnea, often prompting referral for a formal sleep study.
Why does male sex count as a risk factor?
Men are statistically more likely to have obstructive sleep apnea than women, partly due to differences in upper airway anatomy and fat distribution, so male sex is included as one of the 8 screening criteria.
Is this calculator a substitute for medical advice?
No. This is an educational reference implementation of the standard STOP-BANG questionnaire, not a substitute for a physicians clinical assessment or a formal sleep study.
