What is Sleep Apnoea?<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Sleep apnoea is a condition in which the muscles of the throat relax too much while sleeping. It is also known as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea or OSA. The throat walls in patients suffering from sleep apnoea, collapse and become narrow when they breathe in their sleep. The air they breathe in travels through this narrow airway causing vibrations in tissues located at the back of their throat. These vibrations produce sounds that we refer to as snoring.<\/p>\n

At times, the throat collapses too much, blocking the airway partially or completely, so very less or no air goes into the lungs. The former condition where partial air goes into the lungs is known as hypopnea, while the latter is known as apnoea.<\/p>\n

A rarer form of this condition is known as Central Sleep Apnoea<\/strong> where the breathing stops\/pauses before it resumes again.<\/p>\n

Patients may have partial or complete obstructions, and their breathing may either weaken\/deteriorate or stop for some time \u2013 usually between 10 to 60 seconds. In medical terms, they are referred to as interruptions or episodes.
When the patient undergoes these episodes or interruptions, the brain receives a message of something wrong happening to the body and wakes itself from sleep. This may repeatedly happen each night. Although several people may not be aware of these arousals, it disturbs sound sleep. Patients often wake up feeling tired and sleepy. They are also unable to concentrate on their daily morning chores because of fragmented sleep.<\/p>\n
