S02_E15 - The 411 on Sleep Apnea
Sleep Apnea. There's a number of us who live with the condition, and when you add up the number of bed partners who, by extension, also live with it, that number gets pretty huge. But what is it exactly? Is it dangerous? How is it different from snoring? And what are the options for treating it?
On Episode 15, we'll take a good look at sleep apnea with Dr. Ranji Varghese from the Minnesota Regional Sleep Disorders Center at Hennepin Healthcare. We'll break down the causes, the risks and the range of available treatments that may just save you from a sleep divorce (it's a thing)! From sleep studies to the latest devices and techniques, and even Dr. Varghese's own impression of a didgeridoo, we'll cover it all on this episode of the podcast. Join us!
Congratulations to the Minnesota Regional Sleep Disorders Center for their recent recognition by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine for their 40 years as an accredited institution. The many patients you've served, and their bed partners, thank you!
