    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Sleep Medicine
    • Respiratory Medicine

    Context:

    • Sleep apneas are normal physiological events during sleep.
    • Sleep apnea syndrome arises when apneas occur frequently, leading to health issues.
    • Obstructive sleep apnea, characterized by upper airway collapse, is the most common form.

    Purpose:

    • To review the pathophysiology and clinical aspects of sleep apnea syndrome.
    • To discuss diagnostic methods and differential diagnoses for related sleep disorders.
    • To provide an overview of available treatment strategies for sleep apnea.

    Summary:

    • Sleep apneas are physiological events; frequent occurrences define sleep apnea syndrome.
    • Obstructive sleep apnea results from intermittent upper airway collapse during sleep.
