Medscape series on OSA

Post by Catnap » Tue Nov 26, 2013 9:00 am

Medscape just released a series of reports on OSA including new recommendations for treatment of sleep apnea and obesity, first- and second-line therapies, and comorbidities, such as Afib, ocular manifestations, erectile dysfunction (who knew!), and chronic pain. You have to register to use their website, but the info is always very good. http://www.medscape.com
