Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sleep Apnea, GLP-1 Medications & Weight Loss
Q: How do GLP-1 therapies fit into the treatment landscape for sleep apnea and obesity, and why aren't they a magic bullet?
GLP-1 therapies help address underlying obesity, which contributes to sleep apnea, but sleep apnea is multifactorial with airway anatomy, arousal threshold, and other pathophysiologies; hence, GLP-1s must be used in combination with other therapies as part of a holistic, multi-pathway approach.
Sleep Apnea, GLP-1 Medications & Weight Loss
Q: One of the questions that we love to ask our guests is, how did you get into sleep medicine and end up in Seattle?

Sleep and Heart Health: What You Need to Know
