OSA can have a significant and progressive impact on the lives of those who suffer from daytime sleepiness, but it is often not considered. Moreover, individuals with the condition are often unaware of it as it affects them during sleep. The book provides knowledge on appropriate pathways for investigation and treatment. The organization and clarity of the writing make it easy for readers who want quick information on diagnosis, symptoms, treatment, and more. The thorough history section covering anatomical evolution, the history of medicine, and modern-day medical and surgical advances will satisfy curious readers. Ample original hand-drawn diagrams increase the readability and approachability of the work, making pathophysiology and surgical procedures clear and accessible. The book also includes links and descriptions of up-to-date procedures, diagnostic techniques, and devices, guiding readers confidently towards other resources beyond the book for further information. Given its features, this guide will appeal also to general practitioners, ENT students, and OSA specialists. 606 $aOtolaryngology 606 $aRespiratory organs$xDiseases 606 $aOtorhinolaryngology 606 $aPneumology 615 0$aOtolaryngology. 615 0$aRespiratory organs$xDiseases. 615 14$aOtorhinolaryngology. 615 24$aPneumology. 676 $a616.209 700 $aShetty$b Arnav$01437872 701 $aBaptista Jardín$b Peter M$01437873 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910760275403321 996 $aPatient?s Guide to Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome$94130188 997 $aUNINA
