This course is to help individuals who want to understand sleep and related disorders like sleep apnea, and guide themselves and others on its management. 

Sleep apnea affects concentration, routine performances, cardiovascular, other systemic functions, and eventually, the quality of life. 

This concise programme is designed, keeping in mind that you may not have any prior knowledge about sleep and related disorders like sleep apnea, and you really want to learn about it, despite your busy schedule. So we have tried to avoid jargon as much as possible and simplified concepts and terminology for you. This course also includes topics like yoga, acupressure, acupuncture, and reflexology etc. for better sleep.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea is an important and potentially serious medical condition that has become increasingly common for the past 50 years. The ever-increasing high prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and its substantial role in significant morbidities have greatly intensified the need to identify and correctly manage the syndrome.

It is our hope that this course will provide a practical, updated and rapid reference for undergraduates, interns, postgraduates and health professionals who deal with obstructive sleep apnea as a text or as patients on a regular basis in outpatient as well as inpatient settings. 

This course aims to serve as a first-line reference in a very portable form that can be carried around and used as a quick and easy guide all the while presenting its readers with a clear and concise message on how to best identify, investigate and manage the condition with the best recommended clinical as well as non-clinical approaches.
