How many snoring incidents would indicate a low risk of sleep apnea according to the assessment?

Identifying low risk for sleep apnea often involves evaluating the frequency of snoring incidents. In this assessment, reporting one or fewer incidents of snoring is indicative of a lower risk for obstructive sleep apnea. The rationale is that snoring can be a symptom of sleep apnea, but not all individuals who snore have the condition. By setting a threshold at one incident or fewer, it implies that the individual does not display a significant enough pattern of snoring that could correlate with the higher risk factors associated with sleep apnea. Thus, having one or no incidents suggests a lower likelihood of the condition, as opposed to higher frequencies which may raise suspicion and warrant further investigation.
