Just returned from my third class med exam. Having a BMI >30, I went in early before the new sleep apnea guidlines were supposed to kick in on 3/2. The guidelines, according to my AME, have changed again. The >30 BMI guidelines requiring a sleep study have been scrapped. Now the AME is to asked some screening questions i.e, are you often tired?, have you ever fell asleep while driving? etc. then the AME will make the determination if a sleep study is needed.
Hopefully, this will end the sillyness. Or at least curtail it.
