Sleep Apnea Is A Sleep Disorder
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated pauses in breathing during sleep. These interruptions occur due to a blocked or narrowed airway, leading to reduced oxygen intake. The two primary types are obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA). OSA results from the relaxation of throat muscles, while CSA is caused by a lack of proper signals from the brain. Sleep apnea can lead to daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and increased risk of cardiovascular problems. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, CPAP machines, and oral devices, all aimed at improving breathing and ensuring restful sleep. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for better overall health.
