SLEEP APNEA
Apnea, a Greek word meaning ‘breathlessness’. This disease is characterized by the sudden interruption of breathing during sleep and is often characterized by loud snoring that continue regularly for a while until they are interrupted by a long period of silence that is breathtaking (the apnea) .
There are two types of apneas, central and obstructive. Central sleep apnea is less common and occurs when the brain stops sending signals to the muscles responsible for breathing. By contrast, in the case of obstructive sleep apnea, more widespread, or throat or nose can pass the necessary air to breathe.
Normally the muscles of the throat, which are those that allow the passage of air to the lungs, relax during the night, leaving a space wide enough to continue breathing. However, in some individuals, these muscles are closed so that impede the air flow to the lungs, causing snoring and other breathing difficulties.
During the phases where sleep is deeper, although not yet fully understood causes, breathing can stop for a period of time (just over 10 seconds), after which attempts are precipitated by breathing. These episodes of apnea usually cause a switch to another lighter stage of sleep, which may explain daytime sleepiness suffering patients. In fact, many of them are not able to recall these episodes during the day, and it is necessary to resort to family members and other symptoms
to recognize the problem. Mainly it is recognized by the fatigue and headaches during the day, memory loss, weight gain, feelings of lethargy or confusion etc, high blood pressure levels, and snoring at night.
There are some factors that could lead to sleep apnea. Age and obesity are some of them (although almost 40% of people with this problem are not obese), in addition, consumption of alcohol or sedatives, nasal obstruction, a large tongue, have narrow airways and even some features of the palate or the jaw may be factors that increase risk.
