Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent disease entity that has become commonplace over the past few decades. Its surge in diagnosis can be linked to a better understanding of the process with a concurrent increase in prevalence. The social, economic, and personal impacts are significant; there continues to be a need to improve our treatment modalities for OSA.
