In this webinar, UCLA Health sleep medicine experts dive into improving outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) surgery. They highlight the latest advancements and research that can guide better treatment options for patients.
Key points covered in this video include:
• Understanding the mechanisms of OSA and its impact on health
• Surgical evaluation for OSA and the role of neurostimulation
• DISE (Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy) findings and their influence on surgical outcomes
• The latest on Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation and its long-term results
• Endotypic traits and how they affect treatment responses
We also explore recent findings on how palate shape and airway obstruction sites can influence the success of surgery, as well as the effectiveness of advanced therapies like Inspire for those who need more than traditional CPAP therapy.
