I don't get off til 4:30 and I will be coming from near Fredericksburg, and with the new "Enforcement Zone" on 95, it will take me a bit to get there. (Don't wanna risk a $2500 ticket )

So, Figure 50 miles, should be there by 5

I hope that you are able to give the list a good review of this event. i for one would like to hrar it.

Whi is everyone speaking in second person on their posts all of a sudden?

Because the first person was offended and started a brawl. The third person isn't here yet . Besides its always the second (emergency) vehicle thru the intersection that gets clobbered.

Mike,
If you and Linda want to meet there, I'll try to join you. But don't wait for me. The earliest I could get there would be about 6, and if I hit traffic (not unusual ) I might just make it to the lecture on time.

Nice to meet both of you, I hope to post an update tomorrow evening about the event.

I think one of the most interesting things said was regarding the use of Bilevel (Bipap) for compliance.

You will have to guess the answer til tomorrow night!

As for the Audio. I spoke with the person that organized it and I can only provide audio in a streaming fashion, IOW, no downloading. I will be emailing him regarding posting it on their website... Will keep you folks informed...

Mikesus,

It was great meeting you and Snoozin' tonight at the DC lecture.
And it was also great meeting new people. I think it was nice that you recorded the lecture. Also, thanks for bringing in the Aura for us all to see.

Suggestion: Perhaps you can start a topic tomorrow, to describe the meeting, as you said. And that way Snoozin' and I could post our reactions to it, if we wish.

NOTE TO FORUM MEMBERS: When it came time for questions, Mikesus was right up there, wowing the lecturer with his great questions. Only, I've forgotten the questions and answers, so maybe he'll fill us in with the details soon.

Linda

The questions were :

1. When a sleep titration study is done, asinge pressure is determined from that single night, wouldn't patients be better treated from an autotitrating CPAP?

2. Often the first line of defense for sleep apnea is CPAP, and'if there are Compliance issues, BIPAP is prescribed, wouldn't patients be better treated with APAP ?

Answers tonight...
