Sleep Apnoea Videos on WebMD

Last updated on April 28th, 2023 at 04:20 pm

I’ve been reading Dr. Michael Breus’ WebMD Blog called Sleep Disorders for months and only just discovered their video section. In their Video Section, they have hundreds of short clips on a variety of health topics, ranging from ADD/ADHD and Cancer down to Depression, Diabetes, Health for the Heart and Women’s Health.

Most interesting to readers of this blog will be the Sleep section. It is Dr. Breus himself in this video about Sleep Apnea and CPAP treatment who introduces this sleep disorder and its recommended form of therapy in a 2 minutes ‘quick guide’. In this clip, they follow a patient from initial consultation, via a sleep test in a very comfortable clinic, to being fitting with CPAP. At the end they follow up with the guy’s family and learn about the changes it has made to their lives.

In another video, they take you through the process of diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea. They compare an in-hospital overnight stay to a wrist-worn diagnostics device which can be used in-home.

Other videos on WebMD discuss Restless Leg Syndrome, your body clock and how fat kills. The WebMD site is a highly recommended source for sleep apnea patients and all those with an interest in health.
