Epidemic of Americans with OSA- Obstructive Sleep Apnea

"More than 18 million Americans suffer from OSA and an estimated 80%-90% of patients with OSA are undiagnosed and go untreated. Untreated it can raise the risk for heart attack, stroke, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity." We can diagnose OSA easily with a questionnaire, oral examination, and a home sleep study-- much easier and less expensive than sleep center sleep studies.
