Overview / Abstract: |
Residual ES in patients undergoing treatment for narcolepsy and OSA has a profound negative impact on patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In order to properly treat this disorder, it is imperative that the rate of detection increases and that clinicians are educated on the efficacy of current and emerging treatment strategies that minimize the incidence of residual ES. Clinical tools such as Swiss Narcolepsy Scale (SNS) or Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) should be incorporated into routine practice. In this CME Outfitters decision-tree medical simulation, expert faculty will highlight evidence-based tools to facilitate the recognition of residual ES and provide clinicians with the latest clinical updates on the effectiveness of current and emerging therapies that promote symptom resolution and restoration of function. |
