NCT02542488

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the use of the STOPBANG questionnaire to predict whether a pregnant woman with class III obesity has obstructive sleep apnoea. All participants will have a STOPBANG score and modified STOPBANG score (substituting Epworth score \> 10 with the tired item) calculated and then be tested with overnight pulse oximetry to see if they meet ODI criteria for obstructive sleep apnoea.
