Is OSA a single disorder? The future for patients may lie in the identification of different physiologic subgroups.

Has the advent of GLP-1 agonists changed the management of OSA? We discuss the trials and the reality.

Oronasal and jaw surgeries for OSA have changed considerably. An expert surgeon discusses their role in the management of the disorder.

A surgeon and a sleep specialist discuss the reality of this widely advertised procedure.

A specialist dentist discusses oral appliances as an alternative for the management of mild to moderate OSA

The diagnosis of REM sleep behavior disorder needs, in addition to dream enactment behavior, a determination that EMG activity is excessive during REM sleep.  But what is excessive?  In this podcast, we discuss how a practicing polysomnographer can make this determination.

Should we tell patients with dream enactment behaviors of their risk of developing Parkinson’s disease or related disorders? And, if so, how should a health care provider deliver this information? In this podcast, we explore ethics and empathy.

When we diagnose REM sleep behavior disorder, we know that there is a risk of the development of Parkinson's disease or related conditions. But how great is the risk?  In this podcast, we discuss how a healthcare provider can help estimate a patient’s risk with specific questions and examination findings.

In the last two podcasts, we discussed how REM sleep behavior disorder can evolve to Parkinson's disease or related conditions and whether we can test for this risk.  In this podcast, we explore the current state of the art in developing possible interventions to prevent this progression.

There has been dramatic progress in developing specific tests for disorders such as Alzheimer disease.  In this podcast, we ask whether we are now at a point when we can (or should) test for Parkinson pathology in patients with dream enactment behaviors.
