When you copy something from somewhere else you need to cite the source. You didn't.

Very simple answer, since the name explains it HOME SLEEP TEST. a sleep test that is performed at home dumb ass. You must think we are all stupid or you need to valididate yourself by posting things you know but think no one else does. Common misconception, since we are definitely NOT stupid.
Started cpap in 2010.. still at it with great results.

If you cite an article and don't list the source, it is called plagiarism from where I am from....

AAST email to me was the source
it may be on the web somewhere too

are you an english teacher or what
i dont need to cite anything to post information
no matter what the source if any
Very poor taste to utilize another person's hard work as if it was your own.

Home Sleep Test

noun

1. A test given to someone that a doc already knows has OSA, since HSTs can provide a definitive positive but CANNOT provide a definitive negative.

2. A person who used to be a test to everyone else in the forum by posting total nonsense about sleep from the anonymous safety of his own home.

Home sleep test? Apparently only xxxyz didn't know!

Post by Julie » Tue Nov 21, 2017 1:27 pm

To all - please note that in fact I did not ask the question... it was asked by xxxyz who was banned from the forum right after I replied to his question, but now it appears as if I started the thread and I definitely did not. FWIW .
