In this episode, host Dr. Seema Khosla tackles a critical question in sleep medicine: What defines "well-treated" obstructive sleep apnea? Joined by Dr. Barry Krakow, a pioneering sleep medicine physician, the discussion explores the nuanced approach to assessing sleep apnea treatment beyond traditional metrics. 

Discover insights into clinical endpoints for evaluating OSA treatment, the complex relationship between upper airway collapsibility and anxiety, and innovative strategies for patients with challenging sleep disorders. Dr. Krakow shares his unique perspectives on PAP therapy, including approaches for patients with PTSD and the potential role of behavioral interventions.
