Obstructive and Central Sleep Apnoea: 113

Scientific research of the last decade has substantially transformed our understanding of sleep disordered breathing. This Monograph aims to reflect that change, by providing content that covers the current state of the art, while also charting the future course of sleep medicine. Guest Editors Winfried J. Randerath, Jean-Louis Pépin and Sophia E. Schiza have brought together leading international expert authors to provide chapters on pathophysiology, risk stratification, diagnosis, management and treatment. Opening with a patient perspective chapter, which serves to ground the issue in the reality of patient-centred medicine, the Guest Editors hope that this Monograph will be both a practical clinical guide and an intellectual stimulus, encouraging readers to question established paradigms and embrace the complexity of modern sleep medicine.
