Sleep Apnoea Summary
A Complex Disorder with Public Health Consequences

Sleep apnoea is a complex, multifactorial disorder with significant public health consequences. Our understanding of the pathophysiology and neurobiology of sleep apnoea has improved substantially over the past few decades.

Challenges in Diagnosis and Treatment

However, challenges remain in the diagnosis and treatment of this disorder, particularly in terms of improving patient adherence to therapy and developing more targeted interventions.

Molecular and Genetic Approaches to Research

The emergence of molecular and genetic approaches to sleep apnoea research holds promise for the development of novel therapies and a more personalised approach to the management of this disorder.
