Sleep-related breathing disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea, cause snoring and daytime sleepiness. Nasal continuous positive airway pressure is the primary treatment, with surgery as an option for select patients.

Area of Science:

  • Sleep Medicine
  • Respiratory Medicine
  • Otolaryngology

Context:

  • Sleep-related breathing disorders encompass a spectrum from simple snoring to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
  • These conditions result from partial or total upper airway obstruction during sleep.
  • Associated symptoms include snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness.

Purpose:

  • To outline the clinical spectrum, diagnosis, and management of sleep-related breathing disorders.
  • To highlight the associated risks and complications of these conditions.
  • To discuss current therapeutic strategies.

Summary:

  • Diagnosis relies on polysomnography to identify ventilation abnormalities during sleep.
  • Key symptoms are snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness, impacting daily life and safety.

  • Complications include systemic hypertension and cardiorespiratory failure.

    • Impact:

    • Effective management, primarily with nasal continuous positive airway pressure, can mitigate risks and improve quality of life.
    • Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preventing serious health complications.
    • Surgical interventions offer an alternative for specific patient profiles.
