What is Sleep Apnea?

A common sleep disorder, sleep apnea is typified by having one or several breaks in breathing or shallow breathing in sleep. These pauses in breathing can extend from just a few seconds to a few minutes and they can occur 30 times or more in each hour. Once this pause ends, normal breathing resumes, often with a loud choking sound or a snort.

The symptoms of sleep apnea include:

    • Physical exhaustion and sleep during the day
    • Sleeplessness
    • Lack of attention and concentration
    • Problems with memory
    • Depression and mood swings
    • Anxiety
    • Headaches during the day, especially the mornings
    • Irritability
    • Difficulty in concluding duties at work
