Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Non-Obese Patients is an often under-recognized clinical scenario that challenges the conventional association between obesity and sleep-disordered breathing. This webinar will explore the unique risk factors, pathophysiology, and clinical presentation of OSA in non-obese individuals. It will also highlight the importance of timely diagnosis, appropriate screening tools, and tailored treatment strategies for this subgroup. Through evidence-based insights and real-world case discussions, the session aims to equip healthcare professionals with a deeper understanding of managing OSA beyond the typical high-BMI profile.
