    In March last year, Apollo Telehealth launched the ‘Good Nidra’ program to help patients effectively manage obstructive sleep apnea. One year into the program, more than 10,000 patients accessed the sleep management program to improve their sleep quality and treat the condition.

    The Good Nidra sleep program offers doctors and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients a brand-new alternative therapy that is simple, comfortable, efficient and easy to use. The program covers screening and diagnosis at home or in the hospital using cutting-edge technologically based instruments that are convenient and cost-effective. In order to improve treatment outcomes, CPAP devices are equipped with connected facilities for monitoring treatments remotely. In addition, a back-end support team including sleep technicians, sleep coaches and counsellors is also there to instruct and direct patients at every stage of the treatment program.

    Till date, more than 7000 sleep screenings have been carried out through this comprehensive sleep program including 2000+ consultations, 1500+ sleep studies and 3000+ counselling & diet sessions. Additionally, over 1000 patients are on therapy for more than 350+ days to treat their sleep disorders.

    “Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic and can have negative impacts on health, businesses and economies. The consequences of neglecting it welcome an increased risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and heart conditions. Programs like Good Nidra makes it easy to analyse the sleeping patterns of patients in their comfortable environment, provide continuously monitored treatment using connected technology and ensure healthy sleep for people suffering from Sleep Apnea.” said Dr. Sangita Reddy, Joint Managing Director of Apollo Hospitals Group.

    Speaking about the success of the Good Nidra Program, Mr. Vikram Thaploo, CEO of HealthNet Global said “OSA is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world. Around 1 billion people worldwide experience OSA, and up to 80% of those who have sleep apnea go untreated. Sleep apnea is a serious chronic condition that affects patients’ quality of life and general health in addition to their ability to sleep. We are considerably improving the management of patients with obstructive sleep apnea and expanding the number of patients we can serve on any given day, thanks to the Good Nidra Program. This ground-breaking new program can aid the medical industry as a whole in confronting this deadly disease head-on in an effort to save more lives and increase public awareness of it.”
