Sleep apnea is a common but serious sleep disorder where a person’s breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. This disruption can lead to poor sleep quality, daytime fatigue, and a range of health problems if left untreated.
Types of Sleep Apnea:
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA):
Cause: The muscles in the throat relax too much during sleep, blocking the airway.
Symptoms: Loud snoring, choking, gasping for air during sleep, frequent awakenings.
Central Sleep Apnea (CSA):
Cause: The brain fails to send proper signals to the muscles that control breathing.
Symptoms: Periods of no breathing (apneas), gasping for air, insomnia, daytime fatigue, and headaches.
Complex Sleep Apnea Syndrome (Mixed Apnea):
Cause: A combination of obstructive and central sleep apnea.
Symptoms: Symptoms of both OSA and CSA. It may occur when treatment for OSA, such as CPAP therapy, leads to the development of central sleep apnea.
Treatment Options for Sleep Apnea:
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP):
How it Works: A CPAP machine delivers continuous air pressure through a mask to keep the airway open during sleep.
Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP or BPAP):
How it Works: Provides two levels of air pressure – higher for inhalation and lower for exhalation.
Oral Appliances:
How it Works: Custom-made devices that reposition the lower jaw and tongue to keep the airway open.
Positional Therapy:
How it Works: Encourages patients to sleep on their sides rather than their backs to prevent airway blockage.
Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV):
How it Works: A machine adjusts the airflow during sleep and is specifically used to treat central sleep apnea.
