Sleep Apnea

Patients suffering from sleep apnea often feel tired, excessive daytime sleepiness, depressed and fatigued throughout the day. Sleep apnea may also aggravate the adverse effects of comorbidities. Addressing sleep apnea thus becomes more critical and if well treated it may help patients lead a better life. Despite of high prevalence and severity of OSA, this condition goes undiagnosed and untreated. Hence, the strategies are critically needed to decrease the adverse effects of OSA on comorbidities.

Types of Sleep Apnea:
  1. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): This is the most common condition found in majority of Sleep Apnea patients. This occurs due to one of the several causes including Upper Airway obstruction caused due to excess tissue growth or abnormality in anatomy. Effort to breathe is continued in OSA
  2. Central Sleep Apnea (CSA): This is not so common and found in a very small group of sleep apnea patients. In this case effort to breathe is also ceased along with airflow. This is largely affected due to loss of Autonomous stimulus of breathing leading to cessation of respiratory effort.
  3. Mixed Apnea: This is highly uncommon. Here both the central and obstructive element plays a role in apnea episodes.
