Course Description
This course was a live presentation at a dental conference on recognizing Hypersomnia in patients that have been treated for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

- Understand the scope of persistent hypersomnia in OSA patients.
- Define “Hypersomnia” and the tools used to diagnose and categorize sleepiness.
- Understand and recognize comorbid conditions that may contribute to hypersomnia.
- Understand behavioral and pharmacologic treatment modalities for hypersomnia.
