I snore and gasp. What could that have to do with feeling lousy all the time? Turns out there was a connection. Find out what it is." -Daniel Pinkwater, author and National Public Radio commentator. Every night, a phantom-sleep apnea syndrome-steals sleep from millions of unsuspecting victims. You may be among them if your sleep is repeatedly disturbed by snoring, by choking halts in breathing, and by gasping efforts to breathe. You could be in danger of losing your health, years of productivity and happiness, and your life. The struggle between sleep and breathing is caused by sleep apnea syndrome which leaves victims unaware of the source of their daytime sleepiness. Less than five percent of those who may have sleep apnea have been diagnosed and treated. Because sleep disorders medicine is so new, many physicians may not be trained to recognise the symptoms. So, chances are that you could be affected without you or your doctor suspecting it. This short quiz is designed to help you to recognize possible sleep apnea so that you can realize there can be relief for your symptoms.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) - Index, Causes, Symptoms, & Complications - Sleep
An in depth look at this disorder.
http://sleepdisorderchannel.com/osa/

Extractions: Sleep apnea afflicts more than 12 million people in the United States. It takes its name from the Greek word apnea, which means "without breath." People with sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, often for a minute or longer, and as many as hundreds of times during a single night. Sleep apnea can be caused by complete obstruction of the airway (obstructive apnea) or partial obstruction (obstructive hypopnea; hypopnea is slow, shallow breathing), both of which can disrupt sleep. There are three types of sleep apnea obstructive, central, and mixed. Of these, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common. OSA occurs in approximately 2% of women and 4% of men over the age of 35. Physiology and Causes Complications Physiology and Causes The cause of OSA is unclear. The site of obstruction in most patients is the soft palate, extending to the region at the base of the tongue. The body has no rigid structure, such as cartilage or bone, in this area to keep the airway open. During the day, muscles in the region keep the passage open. As a person with OSA falls asleep, these muscles relax to a point where the airway collapses and becomes obstructed. When the airway closes, breathing stops, and the sleeper awakens to open the airway. The arousal from sleep usually lasts only a few seconds, but brief arousals disrupt continuous sleep and prevent the person from reaching the deep stage of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which the body needs to rest and replenish its strength. Once normal breathing is restored, the person falls back to sleep, only to repeat the cycle throughout the night.

Extractions: Sleep Apnea My husband, Norman, often fell asleep watching television, and the kids snickered. "Dad's getting old," my daughter would whisper. But Dad wasn't really old. In his early fifties, he was much too young to be sleeping his life away. As the malady became worse, he'd fall asleep a dozen times a day, even in the middle of a sentence. He often fell asleep while driving, creating a danger to himself and to others. If I were there, I'd nudge him with my elbow or shout to wake him up. Several times, however, he was alone and he landed in the ditch. He loved his fishing, but eventually he had to give the sport up because of the danger of going to asleep and falling out of the boat. Norman seemed to sleep heavily during the night. The kids mumbled and grumbled about having their sleep disturbed by his loud

http://www.voice-center.com/sleepapnea.html

Extractions: The Voice Center Sleep apnea is a disorder in which there is a break or pause (apnea) in breathing during sleep. There are two basic types of apnea: Obstructive : An obstructive apnea occurs when the body (especially the chest walls and abdomen) attempts to breathe in, but the air flow is blocked by some obstruction in the upper portion of the airway. Central : A central apnea is also marked by the absence of air flow into the lungs. However, unlike an obstructive apnea, there is no attempt of movement at the chest wall. These apneas are felt to originate in the part of the brain responsible for controlling respiration. The discussions here deal predominately with obstructive sleep apnea (abbreviated OSA). This site also contains information on snoring and on treatment of obstructive sleep apnea OSA is a disorder in which there is partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. While sleeping the muscles of the upper airway relax, and in some individuals this relaxation is so pronounced it produces partial collapse of the throat. Typical symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea are daytime sleepiness, awakening at night with a choking sensation, morning headaches, restlessness during sleep, and snoring. During sleep, the individual with OSA may block off his or her airway 30 to 100 times an hour. Each blockage causes them to leave the deep stages of sleep and partially awaken until the airway is reopened. As a result, the sleep is severely disrupted and the patient will feel sleepy throughout the day. The daytime sleepiness can be so severe that individuals will fall asleep while driving or while sitting in a chair.

http://www.inet-serv.com/boos/sleep.html

Extractions: This information is duplicated from the brochure "DENTAL APPLIANCE THERAPY for Snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea" by the Sleep Disorders Dental Society (SDDS), 11676 Perry Highway, Bldg. 1, Wexford, PA 15090 While snoring itself may be harmless, it can also develop into, or be a symptom of, a more serious medical condition known as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Go to top of page Snoring is caused by a narrow airway. That's because air travels faster through a slender tube than through a broad one. This rapidly moving air causes the soft tissues of the throat (the tonsils, soft palate, and uvula) to vibrate. It is this vibration which is the sound of snoring. It's like putting a flag in front of a fan: the faster the fan, the greater the flutter. Why is the airway narrow in snorers? Many things can take up space in the airway reducing its diameter. These can include large tonsils, a long soft palate or uvula, and, in people who are overweight, excessively flabby tissue. The most common cause of a narrow airway is a tongue that relaxes too much during sleep and gets sucked back into the airway with each breath taken. Go to top of page What is obstructive sleep apnea?

Chronic Obstructive Airways Disease
Abstract with links to obstructive sleep apnea.
http://www.priory.com/cmol/chronic.htm

Extractions: There can be large falls in arterial oxygen saturation during sleep in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In general, these falls can be predicted from daytime oxygen levels and are not due to classical OSA syndrome, but to a number of factors which combine to produce worsening hypoxaemia during sleep. These patients are often at the limits of their respiratory capacity, and the loss of the intercostal and accessory muscle contribution to breathing, and the increase in upper airways resistance associated with REM sleep, cause marked falls in ventilation. In addition, patients may be hypoxic while awake and small falls in ventilation and PaO2 lead to large falls in arterial oxygen saturation during sleep. The hypoxic episodes demonstrated by overnight oximetry in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease differ in character from those seen in patients with OSA syndrome (figure 10). Figure 10. Overnight arterial oxygen saturation monitoring in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. There is some evidence that increases in upper airway narrowing during sleep, short of apnoeas and even snoring, may contribute to the development of CO2 retention in these patients. However classical sleep apnoea is not significantly more common in unselected COPD patients with raised CO2 levels, and excessive nocturnal hypoxaemia is not one of the predictors of long- term survival in patients with COPD.
