Sleep Education in Otolaryngology Residency Programs: Trends Over the Past Decade
The current study suggests positive growth with regards to sleep education in otolaryngology residency training over the past decade. Responding programs report an increase in faculty providing sleep medicine treatment, an increase in exposure to home polysomnography interpretation, and an increase in sleep medicine-related didactic hours. The number of programs with faculty subspecialized in sleep medicine remains low. Although resident exposure to sleep medicine education is improving, additional educational opportunities to enhance resident physicians' sleep education experience would likely be beneficial.
