MORE ABOUT SLEEP APNEA
Sleep apnea is a serious and deadly condition defined as interruptions of breathing during sleep.
There are two types of sleep apnea:
- Central
- Obstructive
Central sleep apnea, which is less common, occurs when the brain fails to send the appropriate signals to the breathing muscles to initiate respirations.
Obstructive sleep apnea is much more common and occurs when air cannot flow into or out of the person's nose or mouth although efforts to breathe continue.
- During sleep, the body's muscles relax, which can cause excess tissue to collapse into the upper airway (back of the mouth, nose and throat) and block breathing. When breathing is interrupted by an obstruction in the airway, the body reacts by waking enough to start breathing again.
- These arousals may occur hundreds of times each night but do not fully awaken the patient, who remains unaware of the loud snoring, choking and gasping for air that are typically associated with obstructive sleep apnea.
