Can you define what sleep actually is? Highly enjoyed presenting on sleep, pain and behaviour at VOACON recently and getting stuck into the fundamentals of sleep medicine. If you’re interested, sleep (distinct from hibernation/coma/anaesthesia/seizure) is a rapidly reversible loss of consciousness, homeostatically controlled, and with a defined position. If you’re interested about learning more on sleep as a clinical team I run CPD sessions and I’m told they’re quite fun! We even get the pressure mapping out and get hands on 🙌 #cpd #sleepmedicine #handson

Did you know that in the U.S., obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects more than 54 million adults?* As leaders in sleep health innovation, we understand that managing OSA requires a multifaceted approach. Lilly’s study on the effects of tirzepatide for patients with moderate-to-severe OSA and obesity reinforces the importance of weight loss in the management of OSA as recommended by clinical guidelines. Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy remains the gold standard for the treatment of OSA.

Is snoring just a nuisance, or could it be a sign of something more serious? In this episode, we dive into the factors that can make someone more prone to developing obstructive sleep apnea. While obesity is commonly linked to snoring and sleep apnea, we explore other critical elements such as anatomical features, bone structure, and upper airway muscle response. Even slim individuals can suffer from obstructive sleep apnea due to these factors. We also touch on how light sleep patterns and gas exchange (like CO2) play a role in the condition.
