What Is Sleep Apnea?

Sleep apnea is a condition that occurs when your breathing is interrupted during sleep. This can happen multiple times throughout the night, and it can cause you to wake up gasping for air. Many people with sleep apnea don’t even realize they have it, because they sleep through the interruptions in their breathing.

Sleep Apnea Treatment

Untreated sleep apnea can lead to a number of serious health problems, including high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, depression, and obesity. For this reason, treatment is significant. There are a number of different treatment options available, and the best one for you will depend on the severity of your sleep apnea and your individual needs. Some common sleep apnea treatments include:

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP): This is the most common treatment for sleep apnea, and it involves wearing a mask during sleep that delivers air pressure to keep your airway open.

Mandibular advancement device (MAD): This is a mouthpiece that you wear during sleep that helps to keep your airway open.

Surgery: In some cases, surgery may be necessary to treat sleep apnea. If you think you may have sleep apnea, it’s important to talk to your doctor.

Weight loss: Losing weight can help to reduce the severity of sleep apnea.
