Everything We Need to Know is Right Under Our Nose Despite numerous lectures, podcasts, and books written about sleep and breathing, and the constant search for improvement, have we overlooked the intricate connection between the small reactive organ we call the nose and our overall health further emphasizing the importance of proper nasal function for better breathing? How are you (nasal) breathing? The art of the breath is lost without proper nasal function. In the fast-paced world we live in, we often overlook the power of a simple act that sustains us every moment of our lives: breathing. Nasal function, in particular, holds remarkable benefits for our overall health and well-being. From the healthcare provider to the patient, "Breathe Through Your Nose, Don't Pay Through It" seeks to create a global shift in awareness and knowledge of the far-reaching consequences of compromised nasal function, such as respiratory issues, sleep disturbances, systemic inflammation, changes in posture, and overall well-being. An overview of potential barriers individuals face in accessing appropriate treatments, and how the healthcare industry shapes the availability, accessibility, and affordability of screening and treatments related to nasal function and breathing empowers the reader with the knowledge to navigate the complex healthcare system. By drawing on more than three decades of healthcare experience, this book is a call to action from an insider perspective for greater awareness and advocacy, urging readers to prioritize nasal health and demand the healthcare system promote positive change within the healthcare system by placing equal importance on screening, prevention, and early intervention as it does comprehensive treatment options for sleep and breathing disorders.
Autorenporträt
Dr. Karen Parker Davidson, RN, is a globally recognized Airway Clinical Nurse Specialist and leading expert in nasal function, objective nasal measurements, and clinical data interpretation. As one of only two experts worldwide to advance 4-phase rhinomanometry, she pioneered the introduction of nasal resistance as a fifth vital sign and biomarker, emphasizing its role as a physiological indicator of respiratory function, airflow restriction, and an early sign of dysfunction. Her innovative work spans sleep medicine, surgery, orthodontics, and dentistry, utilizing objective nasal assessments to guide treatment, track progress, and ensure long-term stability. She has developed groundbreaking tools and methods, including the Davidson Maneuver for external nasal valve assessment, the FACT Method(TM), the MAVERICK Nasal Exam(TM), and the DAFNE Score. As the founder of Airway AI with objective measurements, she integrates 4-phase rhinomanometry with advanced technology to analyze nasal flow limitations, treatment options, and their connection to conditions such as PTSD, bruxism, posture-related disorders, and airway resistance changes linked to oral devices and tongue instability. With over three decades of experience, Dr. Davidson has held certifications and diverse roles in advanced practice nursing, the medical device industry, critical care, oncology, and infusion therapy and served as a U.S. Air Force Flight Nurse. Currently, she is the Vice President of GM Instruments, Ltd., leads FACT Healthcare Consulting Group, and co-founded MedTec Research, driving collaborations with medical companies and academic institutions worldwide. A respected educator, researcher, and speaker, she is an adjunct professor at Liberty University and Central Michigan University, authoring major publications on nasal function, airway health, and sleep medicine in books and peer-reviewed journals. Her children's book series, "My Little Nose," educates young readers on nasal health, and she has co-authored significant works in Sleep, Craniofacial Form, Airway Function Disorders, and Remote Monitoring and Wearable Devices in Healthcare. Dr. Davidson's contributions and leadership have earned her numerous accolades, including being named one of Washington, D.C.'s Top Women Leaders in 2022, receiving the 2020 Outstanding Dissertation Award from Central Michigan University for her research on healthcare reimbursement practices, and being part of a National Science Foundation award-winning team that developed a medical device to improve manual bag ventilation in airway emergencies-recognized in a March 2024 letter from U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson. In Fall 2024, she was awarded "Top Online Professor" by Liberty University's School of Health Sciences, Division of Public Health, for her work in Healthcare Policy.
