Fairly comprehensive review of OSA

Post by howkim » Sat Oct 03, 2009 9:41 am

It's kind of technical, but I think it makes some good points about untreated OSA. The presentation includes treatment and diagnostic algorithms that may be of interest. Parts seem somethat out of date, but still of interest.

That link is a good find - good bit of detective work in tracking it down.

All this type of info helps people as it provides yet another perspective while reinforcing the familiar issues that keep coming up.

Good find & a worthwhile read for anyone deeply interested.
