Perioperative Anesthetic Management of Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea

This course walks you through a practical, start-to-finish approach to caring for surgical patients with OSA—from recognizing high-risk features and using tools like polysomnography and STOP-Bang, to tailoring induction, muscle relaxant, and opioid dosing based on body habitus and disease severity. You’ll learn how to anticipate difficult airways, choose optimal anesthetic techniques, implement opioid-sparing strategies, and design postoperative monitoring and PAP plans that reduce respiratory and cardiovascular complications in this growing high-risk population.
