Description
|
Physicians in all areas of medicine encounter patients who complain of disturbed sleep. The purpose of this course is to provide primary care physicians with the knowledge needed to recognize and treat major sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, insomnia, and motor disorders of sleep such as restless legs syndrome (RLS). Attendees will acquire skills needed in the evaluation and management of the major sleep disorders they are likely to encounter during routine clinical practice. A major goal of the course is to provide practitioners with updates in sleep medicine. The course will begin with an introductory lecture regarding the approach to the patient with excessive daytime sleepiness and will be followed by the updates in therapy for sleep apnea, discussion of evaluation and treatments of insomnia and RLS.
