So typically patients will have tried CPAP and their sleep medicine doctor will recognize that they're not using it well enough.
You know, untreated obstructive sleep apnea is a real, kind of a silent killer, kind of like, you know, high blood pressure is.
You just really don't know what's happening, but it's one that doesn't happen immediately.
This is something that happens like, it's like, you know, the heavy use of your car over years, you know, you need to maintain it, otherwise things just...
start to fall apart.
And that's what happens with sleep apnea.
The first thing that you might present with atrial fibrillation or you might, we kept mentioning the car accidents, but there's so many things like cognitive decline and others that are out there that it'll just sneak up on you and it's something that could have been prevented.
So many of the side effects of obstructive sleep apnea
which are really tremendous, are almost entirely preventable if you can just get on top of the sleep apnea early on.
Appreciate the opportunity.
