I find it's the easiest way to get past security when doing undercover work.

Because you've got these guys:

Original research:
The clinical utility of potential screening tools is uncertain. Although screening with MVAP
followed by unattended HST may accurately distinguish persons in the general population who
are more or less likely to have OSA, current data are limited by potential spectrum bias, with an
oversampling of high-risk participants and those with OSA and OSAS. Further, we found no
study that prospectively evaluated screening questionnaires or clinical prediction tools to report
the calibration or the clinical utility for improving health outcomes. Other eligible screening
questionnaires (BQ and STOP-BANG) were evaluated by two studies each and found
inconsistent results. Treatment with PAP and MADs improve intermediate outcomes—PAP
effectively reduces AHI to normal or near-normal levels reduces BP; MADs also reduce AHI
and BP, although the magnitudes of effects were generally less than those with PAP. Although
consistent observational evidence has established that persons with severe or moderate to severe
OSA die at twice the rate of that of controls, trials of PAP and other treatments have not
satisfactorily evaluated whether treatment reduces mortality or improves most other health
outcomes, barring evidence of possible benefit for reduction in EDS and improved sleep-related
QOL.

So where's your report? We (yes, AAMOF I do have a mouse in my pocket) need that information to keep the discussion going.

Threadkiller strikes again.
Anyway, JCAHO told hospitals 7 years ago to put in an OSA program:

I consider Zonker the heart and soul of the forum. He's one of the reasons I'm here. Just sayin'.

And this post from you was really helpful????? NOT.
Come on now, we all know why you do this to Zonker and it sure isn't because he's at the top of your Christmas card list.
You just want to troll him and I have had it with this behavior. It stops RIGHT NOW.
You will STOP right now and if you do it again here in this thread or anywhere else....You won't be posting anymore.
You have crossed the line into harassment and stalking and that will earn you a permanent ban.
The trolling stops....NOW....and you have had your one and final warning.

I think to add more effect I would have worded it:
Best practices unfortunately don’t always translate to... best practice.
Anyway if D.H. really wanted to make a difference instead of painting broad-brush condemnation then he should do what I suggested. If his hospital is really that much in the dark then he should say "Y'know, JCAHO says you should be doing this. You can save lives." And that's not just drama. Seen and testified on things that went horridly wrong.
Hey, if you see something, say something.
And not just on internet forums.

If a snorer is detected, as I would be, what course of action would be taken? Desperately needing sleep, I hope the snore police would not wake me.
