Review
The diagnostic portion of the book critically evaluates OSA as a syndrome and its diagnostic studies. The management section addresses not only the various surgical treatment options used by otolaryngologists, but also medical therapy and oral appliances. The future advances section is an excellent addition to the book, discussing the more novel treatment options for sleep apnea.
This is an excellent book for practitioners hoping to gain further knowledge in diagnosis and management of sleep apnea. The multidisciplinary approach of this book is important as medical and surgical colleagues must work hand-in-hand to treat this disorder.
