- Title
The Changing Face of the OSA Patient.
- Authors
LU, MICHAEL C.; RAMBAUD, CHERYL; NOBLE, CHARLES
- Abstract
The article discusses the broader expectations among the patients of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in the U.S. currently. According to the article, it is due to the increased basic and applied research and better physician and patient education. The increased recognition of minority OSA patients and the determined risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in minority populations will prompt sleep laboratories to speed in screening for populations at risk with CVD.
