Osce questions 
1. How does cpap work
CPAP machines possess a motor that pressurizes room temperature air and delivers it through a hose connected to a mask or tube worn by the patient. This constant stream of air opens and keeps the upper airway unobstructed during inhalation and exhalation.
2. Diabetic neuropathy pathogenesis 
uncontrolled high blood sugar damages nerves and interferes with their ability to send signals, leading to diabetic neuropathy. High blood sugar also weakens the walls of the small blood vessels (capillaries) that supply the nerves with oxygen and nutrients.

Learning points from my case discussion
1.how to check and what are the diagnostic criteria for obstructive sleep apnea 

2.Various genetic inheritences like polygenic inheritance,autosomal dominant and xlinked dominant and if there is any genetic susceptibility of CAD in patient

3.does weightloss have any impact on this patients health recovery
