Insomnia is characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, and experiencing non-restorative or poor-quality sleep; it often leaves individuals feeling unrefreshed upon awakening. Symptoms during the day may include fatigue, irritability, impaired focus, and excessive sleepiness. The condition can significantly deteriorate a person’s quality of life, leading to reduced productivity, impaired cognitive function, mood disturbances, and an increased risk of accidents or injuries due to daytime sleepiness.
This educational program delves into the pathophysiology and diagnosis of insomnia as well as the role of the orexin system in the sleep/wake cycle. The program also evaluates the latest treatments, including the dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs), daridorexant, and lemborexant, and how these DORAs compare to other insomnia treatments with the aim of improving treatment choices, reducing adverse events, and improving patient outcomes.

Excessive sleepiness is a common, highly impactful problem not commonly reported and frequently misdiagnosed by physicians. While prevalence reports of narcolepsy vary, patients often do not seek medical advice for their symptoms or, if they do, they receive inaccurate diagnoses. Because of this, it’s possible that more than 1 in 2000 people are living with narcolepsy. It may even take 10 to 15 years to be diagnosed, during which time these patients are impaired. What signs and symptoms are both clinicians and patients missing?
Tune in to hear a patient, Julie Flygare, JD, recount her bizarre symptoms and receive clinical tips on how to improve your identification of overlooked sleep disorders and narcolepsy. Drs. Zee, Doghramji, and Kuritzky provide their clinical insight and expertise on this serious medical condition that continues to be grossly misdiagnosed, underdiagnosed, and undermanaged. By improving your ability to detect, accurately diagnose, and appropriately manage narcolepsy, you can improve the quality of life and health outcomes for your patients. Find out what subtle signs and red flags you need to be on the lookout for and what exciting therapies are now available for these patients.

Dr. Andrew Wilner is joined by Dr. Ken Paller, Northwestern University's Director of the Cognitive Neuroscience program and the training program in the Neuroscience of Human Cognition, to discuss his recent research on communicating with lucid dreamers.
Guest: Richard K. Bogan, MD
Emerging science can help us better understand the link between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). While many factors, such as insufficient sleep, medication, or comorbid disorders, can cause your patients with OSA to feel sleepy, chronic sleep disruption and chronic intermittent hypoxia associated with OSA may also contribute to EDS.
Here to discuss the important physiologic changes to gray and white matter that may occur in OSA and lead to EDS is Dr. Richard K. Bogan, Associate Clinical Professor at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine and Chairman and Chief Medical Officer at SleepMed, Inc.
This promotional, non-CME program is intended for U.S. physicians treating OSA.

While positive airway pressure is the standard of care treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), it may not always be enough to address the excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) that some patients experience. In fact, in one study, up to 34 percent of patients with OSA still reported EDS (Epworth Sleepiness Score ≥10) despite more than 5 hours of CPAP use a night.
Here, Dr. Richard K. Bogan, Associate Clinical Professor at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine and Chairman and Chief Medical Officer at SleepMed, Inc., sheds light on the prevalence of EDS in OSA. Specifically, Dr. Bogan discusses key data that has raised important observations about how commonly EDS may persist even when patients adhere to CPAP therapy.

Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequently underrecognized, as patients may not understand the extent of their sleepiness and EDS does not always correlate with other OSA symptoms. However, it’s important for physicians to identify EDS as it may lead to adverse consequences.
Dr. Paul P. Doghramji, Senior Family Physician at Collegeville Family Practice and Medical Director of Health Services at Ursinus College, discusses identifying EDS and the vital role assessment tools like the Epworth Sleepiness Scale can have in practice.

Autism Spectrum Disorder affects communication skills as well as emotional & social development. Researchers have been studying the brain for decades to better understand how these developmental differences manifest as autism. Recent studies that measure rapid eye movement (REM) have been showing great promise in elucidating the origins and mechanisms of disease.
Host Paul Rokusie sits down with Dr. John Foxe to talk about his study on rapid eye movement, its implications on disease pathogenesis, and new insights it can bring to future autism research.
Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO
Sleep apnea in children can lead to many behavioral, school and social problems. Recent research has even suggested that children who snore loudly were found to be twice as likely to have learning problems as children who don’t snore. What can be done to minimize sleep apnea in children?
On this episode of Everyday Family Medicine, Dr. Jennifer Caudle speaks with Dr. Diana Batoon, dentist and founder of Bonita Dental in Scottsdale, Arizona. Dr. Batoon has devoted much of her dental practice and public education efforts around identifying and treating sleep apnea in children.

For many research scientists in the molecular biochemistry and physiology fields, sleep is often touted as 'the most anti-inflammatory event in metabolism.' But what role does nutrition play in healthy sleep cycles and, by extension, inflammatory disease risk reduction? Joining host Kathy King to discuss nutritional mechanisms in sleep aids and sleep disruptors alike is Diana Noland, dietitian and board-certified clinical nutritionist on the adjunct faculty of the University of Kansas Medical Center Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, and in private practice in Burbank, CA.

Background: Sleep loss in attending physicians has an unclear effect on patient outcomes. In this study, researchers examined the effect of medical care provided by physicians after midnight on the outcomes of their scheduled elective procedures performed during the day.
Methods: The study authors conducted a population-based, retrospective, matched-cohort study in Ontario, Canada. Patients undergoing 1 of 12 elective daytime procedures performed by a physician who had treated patients from midnight to 7 a.m. were matched in a 1:1 ratio to patients undergoing the same procedure by the same physician on a day when the physician had not treated patients after midnight. Outcomes included death, readmission, complications, length of stay, and procedure duration. Generalized estimating equations were used to compare outcomes between patient groups.
Results: The authors included 38,978 patients, treated by 1448 …

More than one third of adults say that sleepiness interferes with their functioning at some time in any given month. Despite this, excessive daytime sleepiness, or EDS, is underrecognized and undertreated. Yet the consequences can even be fatal.
