Ronda Holman is The Airway Champion. She is the Co-Founder of Airway Coach a revolutionary approach to helping humans learn to help themselves breathe better while they sleep by developing protocols and systems to be preformed daily. She is a 25 year, US Airforce trained, dental assistant who has spent her entire career looking at airway disorders and their negative effects in the mouth.She has dedicated the last  5 years helping patients and strangers understand the negative affects of oral breathing on their oral health. Ronda runs the airway protocol for her general dental practice helping patients rule out sleep apnea and find custom solutions to breathe better while they sleep.Ronda not only has a passion to help people discovered the root cause to so many non-communicable diseases, but she grew up with an undiagnosed airway disorder herself. After connecting the signs to the symptoms it is her mission to help others learn to see the signs so they can advocate for themselves. Many people do not understand the bio mechanics a breathing. Nor do they understand the detrimental effects over breathing/mouth breathing has on sleep quality. Ronda had extraction retraction orthodontics completed when she was 12 years old. She was diagnosed with upper airway resistance syndrome when she was 37 years old. Ronda then made a choice to either live with struggling to breathe during sleep every night and continue to watch her oral health decline or make a change to improve her airway health. She shares her passion every day to help people understand the difference between sleep (surviving) and quality sleep (thriving) and its inter-relationship between airway health and breathing.Here is the link to all of the tools that have helped other humans breathe better while they sleep. https://msha.ke/airwaycoachSHOWNOTES:

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: A prospective study at the Mayo Clinic Rochester was conducted to examine whether patients actively using their phones on initial assessment in the ED was associated with higher discharge rates The study included 292 patients, and only about 15% of patients were on their phone The patients on their phone tended to be a younger demographic Scribes were trained to record the data during their shifts The results did show that patients on their phone have a higher rate of discharge 94% chance of discharge if the patient is on their phone 64% chance of discharge if the patient is not on their phone This concept can potentially contribute to improving triage decisions References Garcia SI, Jacobson A, Moore GP, Frank J, Gifford W, Johnson S, Lazaro-Paulina D, Mullan A, Finch AS.

BIO:Dr. Neel Bulchandani is an intra- and inter-disciplinary healer specializing in solving complex problems related to sleep, airway, feeding, and mobility. He uses systems thinking and a kaleidoscopic approach (nod to Thomas Edison) in order to help all ages -- babies to adults. He began as a chiropractor 17 years ago, and then 9 years ago, when his daughter was born with a tongue tie, he went down the rabbit hole of tethered oral tissues and airway/feeding centered health. Already curious and delving into fascia and visceral work (organs), Neel dove even deeper in order to help figure out the surrounding issues related to his daughter's feeding issues. He developed a Floor of the Mouth Protocol, and has online courses for both practitioners and patients where he aids them in freeing tongue and mouth tension. He has created an Airway Map comprised of 70 areas in the body that are often restricted when there are issues with the mouth, like tongue tie, narrow palates, etc. He's begun a tour across many cities in 2025 to teach other practitioners his method, and will be in Phoenix in June, Boise in July, Chicago in August, Minnesota in September, and Sarasota and Dallas in November. He's married to Dawn, and dad to 3 (Serenity, Cypress, and Zephyr). He does in-person and virtual appointments, and is based in Santa Barbara. He also sees patients in Agoura Hills, Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area.SHOWNOTES:

When Eliza was a child, sleep was never restful. Her tonsils were huge, her palate was narrow, and breathing through her nose felt like trying to sip air through a coffee straw. No one ever asked about her sleep. Doctors dismissed her symptoms. And so she quietly carried exhaustion, anxiety, and overwhelm into adulthood—thinking it was just normal. Until her husband, Dr. Clayton, began learning about airway health. In today's episode of Dentistry Disrupted, Eliza and Dr. Clayton get personal and share their family's decades-long struggle. From Eliza's own childhood struggles to their son's early feeding difficulties, teeth grinding, and behavioral challenges—this episode uncovers the overlooked signs of sleep-disordered breathing and how addressing the root cause can change lives. Together, they discuss: The turning point that led Dr. Clayton to pursue airway education How a collaborative, functional approach helped their family heal Why airway issues are often dismissed by traditional providers How to recognize signs and get the right help for your child What their upcoming Holistic Airway Health for Families class will teach If you've ever been told “they'll grow out of it,” this episode is your sign to keep asking questions.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Kevin discuss the intricacies of waking patients after sedation, focusing on procedural sedation techniques, managing emergence delirium, and the challenges of airway management. They share insights from real-world experiences, particularly in combat and austere environments, emphasizing the importance of monitoring and patient safety during the awakening process. The conversation also covers extubation strategies, the differences between Cric and ET tube management, and the significance of having a well-thought-out emergence plan from the start of anesthesia.TakeawaysWaking a patient requires careful monitoring and reorientation.Emergence delirium can occur with ketamine; vigilance is key.Communication with the patient is crucial during awakening.Airway management is critical, especially in trauma cases.TIVA can complicate the emergence process; planning is essential.Extubation should be based on patient readiness and safety.Cric tubes may be better tolerated than ET tubes.Ventilation support may be necessary during the emergence phase.Understanding the patient's history aids in sedation decisions.Always be prepared for unexpected airway challenges.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Patient Awakening01:16 Procedural Sedation Techniques06:24 Managing Emergence Delirium10:40 Airway Management in Sedation15:27 Waking Up After Long Procedures24:23 Extubation Strategies and Considerations30:29 Cric vs. ET Tube Management39:06 Ventilation and Monitoring During EmergenceThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deltadevteam.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠

In today's enlightening episode of The Healthy Sleep Revolution, Dr. Meghna Dassani sits down with Dr. Nimisha Somaiya, the heart behind Seva Dental in Bellbrook, Ohio. With a unique blend of clinical expertise and a deeply personal journey into sleep-disordered breathing, Dr. Somaiya shares how incorporating sleep medicine into her dental practice has transformed not only her own life and her family's health—but is now changing the lives of her patients as well.   This isn't just a conversation about straight teeth—it's about functional dentistry and how something as seemingly cosmetic as Invisalign can have life-changing impacts when used with intention. You'll discover how airway-focused dentistry plays a vital role in supporting proper tongue posture, creating space for better breathing, and ultimately helping to address conditions like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).   In this episode, you'll learn: - Why crowding of the teeth isn't just an aesthetic issue—it's an airway issue - How functional orthodontics like Invisalign can create space for the tongue and improve breathing - The importance of proper tongue posture and ideal oral resting posture - Why snoring, grinding, and bedwetting in kids should never be ignored - The variety of effective treatment options available beyond CPAP therapy - How dental professionals can be key allies in identifying and treating sleep apnea   Top 3 Takeaways from Dr. Somaiya: - Parents, pay attention to your child's sleep habits – Snoring, grinding, and hyperactivity are warning signs, not phases they'll “grow out of.” - Don't ignore a sleep apnea diagnosis – If CPAP isn't working for you, there are alternatives like oral appliance therapy that can help you breathe and sleep better. - Be your own advocate – If your doctor isn't taking your symptoms seriously, keep pushing.
