Having started studying sleep at LVI approximately 8 years ago, it is amazing how the study of sleep has evolved at LVI. The embracing of the physiologic approach to OSA has made the results significantly better for both the patient and the doctor. LVI has created a quantum leap in the understanding of patient problems, as well as the resolution of those problems. The things that we learned at LVI give us the ability to better understand the needs of our patients and address those needs with solutions that respect the physiology of the patient.
