also, we did apnea screens and we are finding that about 30% to 35% of the officers screened for apnea- we haven't done actually testing yet but we are going to get to that. i think a doctor who will speak this afternoon has done a lot of research in this area and his research is very good. i think if i were to go through a source i'd probably go there for additional research. >> i think what i'm highlighting here though which is a note for us to pay attention to there is no question about the issue, there is no question there is a variety of things you can do about it. i guess my question goes to do we know what the model or other programs that are in place, how effective they really are by safety standards. i'm asking that question, and right now i'm kind of getting the sense that there may be a gap there for us to kind of understand the data. because you do the investigations to feed it back to get some improvement. last pressure and no question but this question is right before the break, so timely. what about required versus guidance? so a lot of challenges for workplace is when p

that includes sleep apnea and restless legs.tain medical disorders such as heart failure or gasping or breathing difficulties at night and psychiatric disorders or ocd where people have a hard time staying asleep. i will focus today on sleep apnea and the epidemiology and as shown in slide after slide, it has an important association with drowsiness while we drive. i will cover what is it what is the usual symptoms and the consequencecons consequences and can it be treat and does treatment help? does it make sense economically? let's go. i have 11 minutes. here we have a picture of an airway. it is air moving through the nose and mouth and down the wind pipe and into the lungs. when we, awake this is plenty of air. sleep apnea does not happen or only happens when we are asleep. the air collapses and blocks the progressive air into the throat and down into the lungs. why does that happen? what's different? people with sleep apnea can have an airway that is narrowed. it can be narrowed because of fatty tissue built up in the upper

in summary, i would say that the sleep apnea is common. it's definitely been linked to sleepiness and crashes as well as major economic health outcomes and importantly it can be diagnosed in the home. the treatment is inexpensive and inaccessible and shown to lower trash risk and improves many conditions and can be tracked in realtime. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> our final panelist is from the food and drug administration. >> i'm a clin dal team leader in the center for drug evaluation and research at the food and drug administration. i would like to thank the ntsb for inviting them here to talk and i'm going to start with a slide that said the views i am going to express are mine and not necessarily of the fda. one of the discussion questions that will come up soon is what the fda is saying to patients to help them understand the risks from drugs as with regard to drowsiness and driving. in this presentation there, it's hard to see, but there is yellow. on my screen it's hard to see. yellow highlights around text and that text i

researchers found people who had asthma were 40% more likely to develop sleep apnea.leep apnea has been linked to several health problems and also a higher risk of death. >>> the more you work during the week the higher your risk of drinking too much. finnish researchers studied more than 300,000 people in 14 countries. they found people who worked 49 to 55 hours a week were about 13% more likely to have risky alcohol consumption than those who worked 35 to 40 hours a week. now for women, risky drinking is considered at 14 or more drinks a week. for men, it is 21 or more drinks a week. >>> ikea recalling nearly 170,000 crib mattresses. turns out there is a risk that babies could become trapped between the mattress and the end of certain larger cribs. the recall involves five different mattress models that were sold between august 20 10 and may 2014. consumers should stop using the mattress, return it to an ikea store for a refund or replacement. for more information, go to our nbc 10 mobile app or to nbc10.com. >>> taxpayers could see a delay in getting their annual t

i think as was said the data is most compelling for sleep apnea. that's because that's where the studies have been done. dr. rosekind asked the question, we really don't have that type of data. there's multiple studies and you're focused on that because that's where we get the data. over here there may be more problems we just don't know about and i think that's tremendously important. i think the idea that all of the pharmacists playing an important role here is a great idea. the other part that was talked about a bit was the alcohol sleep and i think that could be something that's expanded because there is data out there that if you have low level alcohol, you're not that impaired in driving simulators, slow level sleep deprivation, put the two together they massively interact. as the bac limit comes down in terms of risk, then the relative role of sleepiness increases. so i think that's important to consider. that interaction is actually i think very important. finally, i'd just like to make the point there seemed in all these discussions here t
