What is sleep apnea?

Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterised by pauses in breathing during sleep. These pauses, called apneic events, usually last between 10 to 20 seconds and occur when the muscles of the throat relax too much and make it difficult for air to pass through.

लेकिन, कुछ लोग ऐसे भी होते हैं जो हर यात रात छह घंटे या उससे कम सोकर भी तरोताजा और ऊर्जावान रहते हैं। उन्हें उठने पर किसी तरह की कोई दिक्कत नहीं होती है। ऐसे लोगों को प्राकृतिक शॉर्ट स्लीपर या ट्रू शॉर्ट स्लीपर कहा जाता ह...more

sleep apnea is a sleeping disorder that can lead to serious health problems, such as high blood pressure and heart trouble, if untreated. Untreated sleep apnea causes breathing to stop repeatedly during sleep, causing loud snoring and daytime tiredness, even with a full night's sleep.

Sleep apnea is closely linked to several life-threatening conditions. It may cause or worsen chronic illnesses like high blood pressure. Sleep apnea can lead to sudden cardiac death. If you have a history of stroke, heart disease, diabetes, or another chronic illness, ask your doctor to test you for sleep apnea.

Obstructive sleep apnea can cause your breathing to start and stop while you sleep. It can lead to the throat muscles relaxing so much that they block your airway. You may wake up abruptly gasping for air or choking.
