Does anyone know if there is a trade show or convention just for the OSA industry?

If they had one, most of us wouldn't be allowed in, because we are patients, and we are NOT allowed to know the secret handshake. Jim

Yes. It's called Medtrade. It was held in the latter part of April (I believe) and is referenced in this thread.

I've never found a large "trade only" show that could keep me out yet. They couldn't possibly police that. That would take an enormous amount of resources and staff. I'm pretty tricky when it comes to things like that, and there's no law against it...criminal impersonation of a respiratory therapist maybe? The local DA wouldn't bother to prosecute anything like that, and theoretically you wouldn't be found out, so who is going to sign the complaint? Only a small show (like 250 attendees) can keep out the non-trade.

I found another one called Sleep 2008. This looks like a BIG show held every June. The next one will be in Baltimore June 7 - 12, '08. Check out the exhibitor list from the 2007 show...quite impressive.
