Primer on Sleep Disorders for the Primary Care Physician Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, October 3– 4, 2003
The medical aspects of sleep have shown progressive importance over the last two or three decades. Sleep problems are a very common reason for visits to primary care physicians. However, sleep histories are rarely obtained and information about sleep and its disorders is minimally touched upon in most medical school curricula. In this course, participants will discuss the fundamental aspects of sleep and sleep deprivation; review techniques on screening and testing for sleep disorders; and review the diagnosis and treatment for several common sleep complaints and disorders. The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to sponsor continuing medical education for physicians. The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine takes responsibility for the content, quality, and scientific integrity of this CME activity. The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine designates this educational activity for a maximum of 7.75 hours in category 1 toward the AMA Physician’s Recognition Award. Each physician should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the activity.
