As well as giving a flavour of the wide variety of topics covered, guests Adam Benjafield and Leanne Kaye share their conference highlights and key takeaways. The discussion ranges from the potential of behavioural science to drive PAP therapy adherence to the importance of personalised therapy, digital health and person-centred care, alongside new perspectives on OSA diagnosis and phenotyping. There’s also time to touch on the rise of HFT, digital health, a couple of eye-catching new studies based on real-world data, and the important relationship between climate and health. What might these developments mean for the future of sleep and respiratory research and therapy? Listen in to find out.

In this episode of OnAir, we explore how Sweden is shaking up its approach to the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea. Professor Ludger Grote explains the background and benefits of the Swedish National Sleep Guidelines, which are part of a concerted effort to improve diagnosis, waiting times, treatment and outcomes for patients across the country. The new, comprehensive approach is based on a diagnostic framework and treatment matrix that has been developed using registry data and input from both patients and professionals. Listen now to learn how and why Sweden is taking a broader view of OSA and what Prof. Grote thinks about the role of AHI and hypoxic burden in diagnosis.

Following our previous podcast, which delved into the evolution of home high-flow therapy (HFT) and its implications for patient care, Dr Maxime Patout returns to offer more insights into the topic. This time round he describes the objectives of the large HiFAE trial he’s leading to assess the benefit of HFT when initiated after a severe exacerbation of COPD. Focused on French patients with severe forms of the condition, the study – which saw its first patient enrolled in late 2022 – aims to show that using HFT in a home setting can indeed decrease both the rate of exacerbations and mortality, as well as improve quality of life and respiratory function.

In this episode we’re joined by Dr Maxime Patout, who’s at the forefront of new research into home high-flow therapy (HFT). Listen now to find out why he thinks the evolving role of home HFT – especially in out-of-hospital care – means we’re on the verge of important change in respiratory medicine, with benefits for patients, healthcare professionals and healthcare systems. If you’d like to hear more from Dr Patout on this topic, tune in next time, when he’ll be offering insights into the French clinical trial HiFAE, and why it is important for increasing evidence in this field.
