About the Webinar
This insightful webinar will discuss advancements in diagnosing and treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Led by Dr. Danny Eckert, this presentation aims address the complexities of OSA management and optimize patient care.
At the conclusion of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- define the key different anatomical and non-anatomical pathophysiological causes of OSA.
- describe the new and emerging targeted non-CPAP therapies for OSA that are being developed including combination therapies.
- differentiate which patients may be most suitable for oral appliance therapy alone or in combination with other add on combination therapies based on underlying pathophysiology and the potential for in-home monitoring to help inform clinical decision-making.
