Effect of Upper AIrway Surgery vs Medical Mangement on Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

​Honorary Clinical Professor Stuart MacKay will present a summation of the findings of the recently published SAMS trial (JAMA) on Multilevel Airway Surgery in Adult OSA. Also, the preliminary steps and publications in the lead up to SAMS trial will be discussed.
These findings challenge the notion that there is “not enough” to support a role for contemporary multi-level surgery in OSA, and provide a solid discussion about how to design, execute and publish a rigorous randomized trial in ENT surgery.
For those interested, a JAMA podcast is available at https://.edhub.ama-assn.org/jn-learning/audio-player/.10.1001/.jama.2020.15373.
