Event

This hands-on course consists of a morning interactive didactic session, case-based break-out sessions and a final afternoon session with opportunities to experiment with different advanced PAP devices. The focus is the management of sleep disordered breathing incorporating recent findings and addressing current gaps in guidelines.The lectures will review pathophysiology and epidemiology, but primarily explore the different treatment approaches and PAP modalities, including OSA with auto-PAP, central sleep apnea and sleep-related hypoventilation sub-types. Participants will next break into small groups of 10 for case studies (selecting 3 cases out of 6 to discuss) with faculty leader. Finally they will have four hands-on experiences with different advanced modality PAP devices.
