There are many predisposing factors to OSA including craniofacial abnormalities or facial disproportions. The OSA is classified with Apnea Hypoapnea Index or Respiratory Disturbance Index. There are multiple treatment modalities in practice today from the most conservative treatment options to the most invasive ones. In this talk, we will try to present the most comprehensive summary of the pathophysiology and clinical features of OSA as well as present data on different treatment options to help you make the most evidence based decision on OSA.
