Dr Oko, Consultant ENT surgeon Michael Oko, UK government advisor on Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) and Founder of the Sleeping Disorders Centres spoke today at the conference offering solutions for obstructive sleep apnoea which is an ever increasing problem in the Arabian Gulf.

Sleeping Disorders Centres are comprised of a team of healthcare professionals who specialize in different aspects that cause sleep disorders such as, pulmonologists, neurologists, psychologists, anaesthesiologists and otolaryngologists.

According to Dr Oko, "Because of a prolonged campaign about the condition and the better treatment options available after the Sleeping Disorders Centres were established in the UK, we have seen the rate of annual traffic fatalities in Lincolnshire fall from 79 to 39 within five years. At least any traffic accidents brought about by this condition can be minimised if more patients seek help. Studies show that up to 20% of road traffic accidents are sleep-related, so with over 1000 road deaths a year in UAE, and over 6300 in Saudi Arabia [2007 police data], a sleep apnoea testing and treatment programme could reduce fatalities significantly.”
