In this episode of OnAir, sleep clinician Prof. Dr Manuel Sánchez-de-la-Torre and host Daniela Ehrsam-Tosi discuss the potential benefits of patient phenotyping for obstructive sleep apnoea.

He highlights the role of patient phenotype in predicting responses and understanding neutral effects, with a particular focus on blood pressure and hypoxic burden. He also emphasises the value of telemedicine in promoting engagement and treatment adherence.
