Supplemental oxygen therapy without pre-operative OSA-testing (pulse oximetry) is safe and more cost-effective compared to preoperative OSA-testing using poly(somno)graphy (sleep test).

EDS (ESS), its impact on daily functioning (FOSQ-10), HRQoL (RAND-36) and total weight loss (TWL) were assessed preoperatively and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively.
