Abstract (English):	Objective: To determine the differences in the prediction of the risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) by comparing the results of the Berlin Questionnaire (BQ), the STOP-Bang (SB) Questionnaire and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) in patients admitted to the Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo from 2019 to 2020. Materials and methods: A quantitative, observational, descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional clinical study of diagnostic tests. A sample of 304 patients older than 18 years was included in the research. The results are presented with frequencies, measures of central tendency and dispersion. The variables were associated using the chi-square test. The sensitivity and specificity of the BQ and ESS were measured against the SB Questionnaire. A p value less than 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: The average age of the study population was 52.89 ± 15.97 years and adults under 50 years of age (40.5 %) prevailed. Sixty point five percent (60.5 %) of the participants were males. The average BMI was 30.74 ± 6.02 kg/m², with the overweight category being the most numerous (43.40 %). Forty-two point eight percent (42.8 %) of the participants had hypertension. According to the SB Questionnaire, BQ and ESS, 77.0 %, 62.5 % and 60.5 % had a high risk of developing OSAHS, respectively. The questionnaires showed an association between age, sex, nutritional diagnosis and arterial hypertension, and a high risk of developing OSAHS (p < 0.05). There is a weak correlation between the SB Questionnaire and BQ (Kappa: 0.39), and between the SB Questionnaire and ESS (Kappa: 0.33). Conclusions: The abovementioned questionnaires are useful tools to predict the risk of developing OSAHS. They show a significant but weak correlation between them. However, they should be considered as rapid and reliable screening tests. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	Objetivo: Determinar las diferencias en el pronóstico del riesgo de presentar el síndrome obstructivo de apnea/hipopnea del sueño (SOAHS) al comparar los resultados de los cuestionarios de Berlín (CB), STOP-Bang (SB) y la Escala de somnolencia de Epworth (ESE) en pacientes internados en el Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo durante el periodo 2019-2020. Materiales y métodos: Estudio clínico cuantitativo, observacional, descriptivo de pruebas diagnósticas, prospectivo y transversal. Se incluyó una muestra de 304 pacientes mayores de 18 años. Los resultados se presentan con frecuencias, medidas de tendencia central y de dispersión. Las variables se asociaron mediante la prueba de X². Se midió la sensibilidad y especificidad del CB y ESE respecto a SB. El valor de p menor de 0,05 se consideró como significativo. Resultados: El promedio de edad fue de 52,89 ± 15,97 años, con predominio de los adultos menores de 50 años (40,50 %). El 60,50 % de los participantes fueron de sexo masculino. El promedio del IMC fue 30,74 ± 6,02 kg/m² y la categoría más numerosa fue el sobrepeso (43,40 %). El 42,80 % tenía hipertensión. Según el SB, CB y la ESE, el 77,00 %, 62,50 % y 60,50 % tenían alto riesgo de presentar el SOAHS, respectivamente. Los cuestionarios mostraron una asociación entre edad, sexo, diagnóstico nutricional e hipertensión arterial con un elevado riesgo de presentar SOAHS (p < 0,05). Existe una débil correlación entre SB y CB (Kappa: 0,39) y SB y ESE (Kappa: 0,33). Conclusiones: Los cuestionarios son herramientas útiles con el potencial de pronosticar el riesgo de SOAHS. Presentan una correlación significativa, pero débil, entre su pronóstico de riesgo del síndrome. Sin embargo, deben ser considerados como pruebas de detección rápida y confiable.
