The Dangers And Treatment Of Sleep Apnea California

By Robert Powell


Let's start with trying to understand what sleep disorder is. This is basically an illness, a sleeping disorder. A person suffering from this condition has breathing problems whilst sleeping and cannot breathe consistently, having pauses between intervals of breathing. This disorder has three different kinds; central apnea, obstructive apnea and mixed sleep apnea California. The following article will discuss all one needs to know about apnea.

Conservative estimations by the World Health Organization are that as many as one-hundred million individuals may be struggling with one or more types of this condition. This can be associated with very special problems for workers within performance-related jobs and especially in the commercial trucking industry, air carriers and pilots, air-traffic control and other transport related industries along with other high-stress occupations.

The other two types of the condition aren't as significant as their chances of occurrence as very low, even if they are combined they occur at less than 20% of the cases. But for the sake of knowledge central apnea is occurs when the person suffering from it does not have enough respiratory effect that is he is unable to make proper inflows and outflows of breaths. Whereas mixed sleeping disorder is as the name says, the mixture of both of the other kinds of sleeping disorder and has the effects of both of them.

This disorder is not easily realized by the patient suffering from it, in most cases a year passes without the person noticing he is suffering from this condition. However, the symptoms are easily noted by other people who see the patient sleeping. There are a number of different symptoms that the person suffering from the condition will suffer from, some of which are as follows.

Treatment for this condition is quite simple. Both types can be effectively managed through home therapy using a CPAP mask to ensure that you get the proper amount of oxygen during rest. This should eliminate the headaches and fatigue you were feeling before the treatment. For mild cases, lifestyle changes can help. Simple measures such as losing weight or changing your resting habits will improve your rest.

In this test, batteries are connected to the person while he is asleep and then he is monitored throughout the night to see what areas of the brain are affected by this disorder.

Like any other kind of illness, this condition is not a very good thing to be suffering from. This is not restricted to any group of people; anyone can suffer from this condition. People suffering from it are usually tired all the time and if this is not treated it builds up with time.

Weight gain is one of the more serious complications possible for sufferers of this condition. A lack of energy leads to a lack of caring about getting the right nutrients, the right foods, and exercise is out of the question. Weight gain combined with disorder can make you more at risk for developing diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart arrhythmias over time, as well. Every single part of your life can be disastrously affected by this condition, and to leave it go untreated is gambling to the nth degree.
