Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Pregnancy


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Jennifer Dominguez, a leading expert in topics related to morbid obesity, particularly Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), talks with us regarding the importance of early recognition and management of OSA during Pregnancy. To guide our discussion, we conversed regarding the recently published consensus statement titled- The Society of Anesthesia and Sleep Medicine and the Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology Consensus Guideline on the Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Pregnancy publication is an excellent reference for all those caring for patients with a known or suspected diagnosis of OSA. In this episode, we emphasized the intra (e.g., intrathecal morphine) and postoperative care (e.g., monitoring) of the parturient with a known or suspected OSA.
