Sleep health and dysfunction across the spectrum of pulmonary vascular disease (Day 2)
Discuss the state of knowledge of sleep health and dysfunction in all five established pulmonary hypertension (PH) groups. Identify gaps in knowledge and critical unmet needs in the role of sleep disordered breathing (SDB), nocturnal hypoxemia and other sleep disturbances (e.g., insomnia, abnormal sleep duration, sleep fragmentation, etc.) in the spectrum of pulmonary vascular disease, including mild pulmonary hypertension. Discuss novel interventions, trial designs and endpoints to test the potential role of sleep interventions in therapy of pulmonary vascular disease (PVD).Air date: 8/31/2023 10:00:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)
