Have OSA and Can't Sleep? You may have both OSA and insomnia, aka COMISA. Alex Sweetman and his colleagues are actively investigating COMISA and how it impacts our health. On this episode we talk about what we know so far, what we want to know, and the challenges it creates for treatment. Spoiler alert: I truly was amazed to discover how effective cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia can be in this population. Definitely an eye-opening discussion.
